2019 Wine Tasting Results

And another year is in the books! Again, a quick “Thank You”!

To those of you who contributed: Thanks for sharing your wine. They were all delicious!

To those of you who stopped by, tasted, and voted: Thanks for all of your “hard work”! 

It was a pleasure to see all of you (and meet some of you).

It’s always a fun time for us, we trust that it was for you as well.

Now, let’s get to the 2019 Wine Tasting Results:

We had enough entries to split to FOUR categories!: Red, White, Fruit, and Dessert Wines. The wine receiving the highest number of votes in each individual category will receive a $50 Wines By Design Gift Certificate.

Additionally, an Overall Winner (the winner with the greatest number of votes) will receive an additional $50 Gift Certificate.

Our 2019 Winners were:

2019 Wine Tasting Competition

2019 Wine Tasting Competition

It’s here!

The annual WBD Wine Tasting Competition!

You’ve worked hard perfecting your wines here at Wines By Design and once again, you have a chance to show it off.

Coming soon: (Saturday, March 23 from 12p – 4p to be exact) we are holding our annual competitive tasting event.

 

The store will be closed for “normal” business, the day is devoted to the event!

Special bonus: All attendees will receive an Owners discount of 15% off all wine kits during the event.
(Excludes the limited edition kits: Winexpert: LE2018, Vineco: Passport and RJS: 4Fugitives wine kits.)

You are allowed to submit up to 3 bottles per person for the 3 entry categories: Red, White and Dessert/Fruit. Your wine will be moved into numbered bottles and you will be the judge in the blind tasting. The highest scored wines will be the winner in each category and the highest scoring of those will be named Best of Show. Best of Show wins a $100 gift certificate at WBD and the other two winners will each receive a $50 gift certificate to WBD.

To enter, turn in your bottles at the store before Friday, March 22 (contest closing time is 7p).

For the day of the event: there will be a $5 fee for those not contributing a bottle of their finest vino. (Contest entrants are free!)

Note: This is limited to wine made in the Wines By Design store (from our kits). This does not include wine made from fresh juice.

A quick recap (TL;DR):

  1. Drop off up to 3 bottles per person by Friday, March 22 at 7p.
  2. Join us for wine judging on March 23 beginning at 12p.
  3. See how your wines stack up against all the WBD competition!

 

We’ll provide: palate cleansing crackers, snacks, appetizers, munchies, and more!
