The categories for The World’s Finest Glass of Bubbly Awards 2018 (Please note that our judges will decide which category your wine fits in to):

  • Creamy – (A soft rounded wine that gives you a buttery / creamy experience of aromas and in taste).
  • Classic & Elegant – (This will likely be a stylish wine showing balance with a refined quality).
  • Dessert – (A stand out sweeter tasting wine that will pair well with most dessert dishes).
  • Fireworks – (An intense and powerful wine that really bursts with flavours in the mouth).
  • First Date – (The perfect wine to accompany that first date. Nothing too complex and not necessarily a wine that needs to pair with exact foods).
  • Forget Me Not – (A wine with a unique taste. There’s something very different about this wine making it stand out).
  • Gastronomic – (A fine complex wine that hold enough body to accompany most popular main dishes).*

  • Hint of Spice – (This wine will offer a bit of a kick with a spicy tone).
  • Light & Fruity – (A light and easy to drink fruity wine).
  • Meditation – (An addictive wine for those special relaxing times. This wine will express itself more and more the longer it is opened and the longer it stays in your glass).
  • Oaky & Toasty – (This wine will likely have been aged in oak barrels and have a toasty flavour).
  • Sea Breeze – (When you taste this wine you will imagine yourself standing on the beach and tasting those tiny sea drops in the air).
  • Spring Fling – (Floral, blossom aromas and flavour that immediately hits the spot).
  • Summer Days – (Does not have to be a complicated wine, will offer a refreshing and crisp tasting experience ideal for accompanying time spent in the sun / shade).
  • Vintage – (A serious wine with highly complex aromas and a lengthy taste explosion of many layers).
  • Winter Warmer – (Perfect on a winter’s evening sat in front of the fire, likely to be a fuller flavoured wine).
