The funny thing about showing wines is the different variations in wines which receive awards. For example Our sauvignon Blanc received a Bronze medal in one show and the next show ( 3 weeks later) it won Top gold in Sauvignon Blanc Category. The extreme of a bronze to a gold status proves that the show ring is highly political. Both shows sporting the same chief judge.
How are the consumers meant to get a good idea which wines are indeed the best of the bunch when one wines does extremely well in one show and bad in another? One of our winewriters topic header in the paper was "perfect one day, Lovely the next"
How can you compare?
