"Thank you to everyone who voted for me in the Best Wine Critic Competition, not least since many of the votes are cast by fellow wine professionals. Although by definition a competition, everyone that contributes towards communicating about wine has something to offer and is fighting the same cause - to encourage more people to drink well. That is more important today than ever in the shadow of proposed import tariffs and ever-stronger anti-alcohol lobbyists. Despite these immediate challenges, wine has been enjoyed for thousands of years and it will be enjoyed for thousands more. - Neal Martin (Senior Editor - Vinous)"

HOW DOES BWW WORK?

Two Phases

Judging for the competition is carried out in two phases. In the first phase the whole world – both wine consumers and wine professionals – decide on the best wines currently available by voting for wines on Tastingbook.com.


The progression of votes can be followed on realtime on Tastingbook.com during the entire 3-months voting period.

On the second phase the 50 most voted wines in each category will be proceeded to finals where finalist wines will be blind tasted and assessed by the wine professionals. The producers whose wines have been among the most voted wines will be asked to send the samples for the blind tastings.

How to Enter

To enter the competition, producers may submit their wines on the www.bwwcompetition.com website. The wines can be any vintage between the years 2004 and 2019. The vintage appraised in the finals does not need to be on the market at the time, it is sufficient that the wine is on the market during the year 2020. Wines can be entered into the competition at any time until March 30th, 2020. The voting commences on July 1st, 2020. The entrance fee for each wine is €150, and producers may enter as many wines as they wish. Entry into any of the specific categories is a mere additional €25 for each category.

In the first phase of the competition producers are not required to send samples for appraisal.

Each wine entered for the competition gets its own activated wine page at the Tastingbook.com platform with wine information, bottle image and a voting button.

The wines in BWW competition will have a special exposure on Tastingbook.com during the 3 months voting period with pop-up windows on produceer’s Tastingbook site and on Tastingbook’s front page.In the 2019 competition, each competition wine had over 8000 front page exposure.

Judging

During the voting period, the millions of visitors in Tastingbook.com will be able to vote for the wines that they prefer. Wines also receive votes always when professionals appraise and give scores to wines on Tastingbook during the voting period. The voting power of professionals is heavily weighted in their favour. The competition only takes into account votes and professionals‘ scores submitted into votes that are given during the voting period.

The producers whose wines will get voted to the finals are asked to send in 4 sample bottles of each wine.

BWW Competition Q&A

How does the competition work?

The BWW competition is a unique worldwide wine competition. Millions of consumers around the world together with thousands of wine professionals can take part in the competition.

The competition is carried out in two phases. In the first phase consumers and professionals appraise wines in a natural tasting environment, i.e. at home, with friends, in restaurants, etc. and give votes to wines in the competition according to their preference. One person can give several votes to different wines. The votes are given to wines on Tastingbook.com service during 3-months voting phase, where the ranking of most voted wines can be followed in real-time.

In the second phase 50 most voted wines in each main category qualifies to finals. In the finals, the jury formed by Tastingbook.com wine professionals appraise the wines by category. All of the wines in the finals are tasted blind.

Producers are asked to send samples for this appraisal of only those wines that qualifies in the finals.

The first voting phase begins on July 1st, 2021.

Who is behind the BWW

BWW has been created by two leading medias in its field.

- The world’s leading fine wine magazines - FINE Magazines, who publish wine magazines in Scandinavia, Europe, USA, India and Australia. FINE is also publishing the world’s only Champagne Magazine and wine investing magazine - FINEst Wines.

- Tastingbook.com, the world's largest wine information source. Tastingbook started in 2015 and have today over million pages of wine information and at best, over 1.5 million monthly visitors. Over 7000 wine professionals from 112 countries are keeping it updated. Tastingbook will also be the voting platform for BWW.

Why votes?

We think it is important that millions of consumers around the world join thousands of experts to choose the best wines of the world, and voting for wines is simple and easy!

Where can you vote for wines?

Every wine that enters in BWW competition, will get an own wine page in Tastingbook where the wine can be voted. The wine will also get votes in Tastingbook every time wine is tasted and scored in the Tastingbook.com by Tastingbook professionals. Professionals points are converted into the votes.

Who votes for the wines?

Any Internet user on any device can vote for wines. Tastingbook.com alone has over 1.5 million monthly users from over 110 countries. We also hope that all producers make sure their own constituent groups and wine distributors vote for their wine.

How are the votes counted?

The votes are counted during the first phase of the competition by Tastingbook.com service. The Tastingbook shows the number of votes given for each wine on its wine pages and keeps up a constantly updated wine ranking list by votes on Tastingbook site which can be followed by anyone who enters in to the Tastinbook.com. The votes do not count anymore in the finals, where finalist wines are ranked by professionals by scores from 100-point scale.

Who are the judges?

In the first phase of the competition the judges are millions of wine consumers and professionals. In the second phase the jury consists of Tastingbook’s wine professionals, mainly wine writers, sommeliers, MW’s and winemakers.

Why are the winemakers included in jury members?

Who understands wines the best? The people who make them. That is why our juries include the people who make some of the most esteemed wines in the world.

Why don’t I have to send wines to the BWW Competition in the first phase?

Success in the competition is not based on a single appraisal event, but on the voters’ previous or current experiences of the wine in its natural tasting environment.

This makes it easy and affordable to sign up. It also ensures that all wines have equal opportunity to receive votes, and that votes are given for wines already on the market and not for samples producers send specifically for the competition.

We only ask samples for the wines that qualifies into finals.

For all wines that qualify in the finals, we ask for 4 samples of each wine to be delivered to our final's venue.

Why are we also using price categories?

We want to serve all wine consumers in the world and give them information on the best wines in each price range. It is relevant to assess wines in their own price categories, just like consumers do when deciding which wine to buy.

How are the results released?

One can follow the current standings of the wines during the voting period on Tastingbook.com.

What happens if the competition is cancelled?

If the competition is cancelled due to reasons dependent on the organizer the entrance fee will be refunded in total. If the competition is cancelled due to reasons not dependent on the organizer the organizer is not obligated to refund the entrance fee.
