Led by GOCV member Tim Atkin MW, one hundred and six award-winning Spanish wines were announced at the annual Wines from Spain Awards in November 2018. The results followed an extensive tasting conducted by Wines from Spain and a select group of wine trade professionals.
The Wines from Spain Awards represent everything that is best about one of the world’s most exciting wine-producing countries: quality, diversity and value for money. After a day’s very enjoyable judging, an experienced group of retailers, importers, sommeliers and journalists had the enviable task of selecting the best of the best: 106 wines from every corner of Spain.
I think it’s the best Wines from Spain Awards line up yet and I hope you agree with me.
