“The ICWA judging was a joy to Chair again. I'm loving seeing this alternative format of wine packaging come into its own with some truly world class wines now available in can. Surely this is one of the most exciting sectors in the wine market at the moment? The wines entered at the ICWA certainly make me feel that way."

“I was very pleased, to say the least, to join the ICWA judging panel. There were some really exciting and interesting wines lined up which is a real testament to the innovation happening in the canned wine space. Some of the red wine entries particularly stood out, showing some real ageing, structure and depth. And not ‘good for a can’... just very good wines!”
