How the Challenge Works

Wines are photographed for our directory book, Apps, website and weibo at this stage. After photographing they will be organized by style then country in temperature controlled storage.
Wines are picked from the warehouse put into blind tasting bags and tagged with their unique identifier to keep their true identity concealed. Then the wines are waiting for judging.
We adopt the classic 100-point scale used by most wine industry publications, and the standard is as follow: Platinum Award: score≥90 points, Gold Award: 87≤score<90 points, Silver Award: 83≤score<87 points, The best trophy winner will be selected in those gets the highest core.
If two or more board member decide a wine does not deserve a medal, the wine is eliminated.
