Calling all wine lovers! The Virginia Governor’s Cup is happening Thursday, February 23, 2023, at Richmond’s Main Street Station, and you are encouraged to join! Tickets are now available for purchase. Click here to take advantage of this exclusive taste-testing opportunity of the best wines and ciders that all of Virginia offers.
This event keeps on giving. Not only will you have the opportunity to taste the stellar wines of Virginia, but you will be delighted to know that some local chefs will also be there to share their Haute cuisines. While sampling all of VA the V Foundation will be hosting a silent auction with all proceeds going toward cancer research.
One of the toughest and most strict competitions in the US, hosted by the Virginia Wineries Association, Virginia Vineyards Association, and the Virginia Wine Board; this Virginia Governor’s Cup isn’t taken lightly. Each wine will be scored on a 100-point scale by appearance, aroma, and flavor. The process starts in the preliminary round over a course of 10 days. Seven judges will have the opportunity to taste each wine knowing only the category of the wine or the grape used. The judges will drop the lowest score and average the total for the overall score. Then in the final round taking about 3 days, 12 judges will sample all the winners from the preliminary round. The 12 highest-ranked wines will be named the “Governor’s Cup Case.” The wine with the highest score will be deemed the Govern’s Cup winner.
What do the scores mean by numbers?
100-95 Classic: Among the best in the WHOLE WORLD
94-90 Outstanding: Superior Character and Style
89-85 Very Good: A wine with special quality
84-80 Good: A well-made wine of good quality
79-75 Average: Drinkable wine may have minor flaws
74> Not Recommended (NR) or No Score (NS)
Gold Metal goes to 90-100
Silver Metal goes to 85-89
Bronze Metal goes to 80-84
