14/10/2021 It is crucial in today’s competitive marketplace to be present in the right place at the right time and in front of the right audience.

Winners of the 2022 Sommeliers Choice Awards will be promoted on Sommelier Business - the leading online magazine for sommeliers and wine directors of the USA.

Showcasing special category winners of the Sommeliers Choice Awards

New stock of this wine series has been started on SommelierBusiness.com showcasing special category winners of the Sommeliers Choice Awards.

Sommeliers in the USA now have a valuable tool for recognizing which wines – especially wines from up-and-coming international wine regions – would make an important addition to that restaurant’s wine list. That is particularly important in today’s competitive marketplace, where on-premise establishments are using their wine lists as an important and valuable way to stand out from the crowd and attract new customers.

The judging panel of the Sommeliers Choice Awards will consist entirely of top sommeliers, wine directors at U.S. restaurants, bars, pubs, and clubs. In order to be selected as a judge, sommeliers need to provide evidence of their expertise within the on-premise industry.

Wines will be judged according to criteria such as how well they pair with food, typicity, value, quality, and packaging.
