67 Pall Mall, the private members’ wine club, has unveiled the epoynomous Global Wine Communicator Awards, to recognize and celebrate the world’s most exceptional wine communicators.
This ambitious competition steps into the spotlight at a crucial moment, filling the void left by the cancellation of the Louis Roederer International Wine Writers Awards in 2020 after a 16-year run.
At the core of the 67 Pall Mall Global Wine Communicator Awards is a strong commitment to diversity, with a diversity statement that emphasizes the competition’s dedication to inclusivity. “We encourage everyone who communicates about wine to participate, and we reject unfair discrimination against any individual.,” the competition states.
Supported by Berkmann Wine Cellars and Gusbourne Estate, the competition will offer a £2,000 cash prize across six distinct categories covering written, video and audio communication.
Entries are free of charge and open until 10 March 2024, with content eligibility spanning from 4 March 2023 to 3 March 2024. Finalists will be announced in July 2024, culminating in a grand gala ceremony in September 2024 in London, with live connections to Singapore and Hong Kong.
