In their seventh year, the Decanter Asia Wine Awards are considered Asia’s most prestigious wine competition and are judged by 40 of Asia’s most influential and expert wine palates.
“We have seen double digit growth in entries year on year, a testament to the international wine trade’s trust and value they place on their wines receiving an award from Asia’s top critics at DAWA,” says Lyndsay Greatbatch, Decanter.
Decanter started the DAWA with the sole purpose of bringing the world’s best wines to the attention of Asia’s rapidly growing number of wine lovers.
Wines from more 33 countries are judged by Asia’s leading wine experts led by Jeannie Cho Lee MW, Associate Professor of Wine Tasting Le Demei and Poh Tiong Ch’ng.
The award-winning wines will be announced in September and promoted to Decanter and Decanter.China.com and via a series of key trade and consumer tastings throughout Asia.
