TEXSOM International Wine Awards 2016 was more diverse and international than any previous year. The Awards garnered almost 3,200 entries representing 25 countries and 25 US states. The entries were blind-tasted and judged by 67 internationally renowned industry influencers from 10 countries. Of these entries, the judges awarded 2,133 medals. Suggested retail pricing of medal-winning entries ranged from US $2.99 to US $770. Vintages spanned 75 years with the oldest being 1941. The diversity of this year’s Awards provides an array of choices for all beverage enthusiasts.
Beverages are arranged by category of beverage, place of origin, and type of wine. The final list of all winners includes: Awards of Excellence, Traditional Method Sparkling Wines, Other Sparkling Wines, Fortified (Dry and Sweet) and Dessert Wines, Arack, Sake and Rice Beverages, White Wines, Rose Wines, Red Wines, Ciders, and Fruit, Flavored and Honey Wines. The Awards of Excellence category is new in 2016. Wines selected for Awards of Excellence were nominated by judging panels for specific categories, then blind-tasted by the Awards of Excellence judging panels to determine the winner of each Award. In the case of value wines, the Gold Medal winners in each Awards of Excellence Value category were sorted for suggested retail price after the initial judging and all Gold Medal winners meeting the under $18 criteria were tasted by the Awards of Excellence judging panel. Awards of Excellence winners demonstrate quality and unique character that are exceptional even amongst their medal-winning peers.
