This new schedule offers producers, particularly those from the southern hemisphere, greater opportunity to maximise the promotional impact of winning an IWC medal. Tranche 1 and Tranche 2 together form the IWC 2015 competition and the process, tasting and judging procedures are the same. Producers can decide which time best fits into their schedule and therefore which Tranche to enter. The medals announced after each Tranche are Commended, Bronze, Silver and Gold. The Trophy winners of the IWC 2015 competition will be selected from the combined results of both Tranche 1 and Tranche 2 Gold medal wines and announced on 18 May 2015. The prestigious Champions (in the categories Red, White, Rosé, Sparkling, Fortified and Sweet) will then be selected from the Trophy winners and revealed at the IWC Awards Dinner on 16 July 2015. This new schedule, with two medal release dates, gives producers the choice to enter the competition at the best time for their production and sales cycles. Better timing also means greater opportunity to successfully promote an IWC medal to clients and consumers. “For us at Camel Valley, the International Wine Challenge is the most important wine competition for us to enter. The IWC heavily publicise the results and the news of an award winning wine will get to all the important buyers, journalist and customers around the world. All tasting is blind, with wines from every region, giving the competition maximum credibility.” Sam Lindo, Winemaker, Camel Valley IMPORTANT NOTICE: Please note wines of a particular vintage and non-vintage wine can only be entered once, in either Tranche 1 or Tranche 2. Different vintages of the same wine can be entered in one or both Tranches. FOR EXAMPLE: •Château Belle Bouteille 1997 can be entered in either Tranche 1 or Tranche 2, but not both. •If Château Belle Bouteille 1997 has been entered in Tranche 2 then Château Belle Bouteille 2003 can be entered in either Tranche 1 or Tranche 2, but not both. •10 Year Old Aged Tawny NV can be entered in either Tranche 1 or Tranche 2, but not both. www.internationalwinechallenge.com 3 the judging process 4 International Wine Challenge 2015 The Judges and the Judging Process The International Wine Challenge employs expert judges from all over the world, many of whom are Masters of Wine. This ensures that only the most experienced and respected palates judge the wine at the IWC. The IWC operates a tiered system of judges, based on a tasting panel usually consisting of five people. Each panel has a Panel Chairman, who leads a team of 4 judges, consisting of one senior judge, two judges and one associate judge. The IWC’s resident Co-Chairmen oversee the judging panels, assist them with any tough decisions and ensure only deserving wines win a medal. www.internationalwinechallenge.com The Co Chairmen Tim Atkin MW IWC Judge Since 1987 Tim is one of Britain’s leading wine writers, with more than 25 awards to his name, including the 2009 Louis Roederer Wine Columnist of the Year.
