Hong Kong International Wine & Spirit Competition’s 2015

About The Competition Entry Deadline – 11th September 2015

The Cathay Pacific Hong Kong International Wine & Spirit Competition is a unique event and the first of its kind. Run in partnership with the London-based International Wine & Spirit Competition, which has been running for 45 years and is the world’s premier platform for recognising quality in the industry, the Cathay Pacific Hong Kong International Wine & Spirit Competition is created specifically for the Asian market by those who know and are intimately involved in the region.

It is the first truly Asian wine competition in the world, supported by key factors such as: Asian food and wine pairing awards; an award for Best Wine produced in China; and judging conducted by Asia’s most esteemed wine judges from China, Singapore, Japan, Korea, Taiwan and India – including the competition’s Director and Master of Wine, Hong Kong-based Debra Meiburg MW and Chinese food and wine expert Simon Tam.

The competition results will offer the Asian wine consumer the ultimate guide to purchasing wine that is sensitive to the Asian palate and cultural consumption patterns.

Being recognised by the Cathay Pacific Hong Kong International Wine & Spirit Competition provides winemakers with instant prestige in the market. With the competition being the first truly Asian wine and spirit competition, the vast population of wine and spirit consumers in Asia, will be eagerly anticipating the results.

Hong Kong presents a unique marketplace for winemakers. With a zero tax environment recently created for the wine market and a range of positive initiatives being implemented by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council, the market is evolving into a world hub for wine.

The growth is so much so that China is predicted to become the second largest wine consumer globally in the next five years. Currently, the US is the largest with 3.7 billion bottles per year, whereas China including Hong Kong consumes 1.9 billion; however this is forecasted to increase by a further billion by 2015.* With the industry growing from strength to strength, a medal from the Hong Kong International Wine and Spirit Competition is a great way to help you stand out from the crowd.
