50 Great White Wines of the World Competition 2025

Why enter the competition?

• A gold or silver medal is a reliable way for an importer to discover great new white wines for their markets
• A gold or silver medal and being included in the top 50 is therefore a significant commercial advantage for the wine producer when it comes to branding, export and consumer sales
• With a medal on the bottle, wine importers and therefore their customers will take the decision to try and buy!
• The competion is judged by wine buyers from around the world  so wine importers, distributors and the on and off trade can rely on the scores and commercial judgement.
• Each wine entered receives a score. Gold and silver medal winners receive a diploma (printed and in pdf format) which they can use for marketing on a global stage.

Organisation & Judging

Wine producers wishing to submit one or more of their white wines do so by completing a registration form. 4 samples of each ref should be sent and upon receipt these are grouped in flights according to wine style. All wines are tasted blind by a panel of top-level wine buyers/sommeliers from around the world with current direct commercial buying responsibility. After judges reach a consensus, wines are awarded Gold or Silver medals and of these the 50 top scorers are included in the 50 Greats for 2025. Each wine style category winner is awarded a Platinum medal. The results are published on the winepleasures.com web site and distributed not only to a database of some 65,000 wine importers, distributors, on and off trade around the world but also to media and end consumers through social media channels where Wine Pleasures has a combined following of 155,000 followers.
