The 2017 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition (SFCWC) received nearly 7,000 entries from 28 states this year. 63 judges from a variety of fields including trade, education, media, retail, and hospitality, traveled in the second week of January to the Cloverdale Citrus Fairgrounds in Sonoma County to determine the best wines in the USA.
Utilizing an extensive process that divided the varietals into several categories and subcategories, the event gave the panels the chance to rate entries as Bronze, Silver, Gold, or Double Gold (equivalent to a unanimous rating by all panel members). Only seven entries were honored with the prestigious Sweepstake Award in the categories of Sparkling, White, Pink, Red, and Dessert/Specialty wines.
Best of Class Awards were also awarded to American wines recognized for extraordinary quality. Each of the Best of Class winners were categorized to provide consumers with an easy reference guide to delicious and affordable wines. The public will have a chance to taste many of these award-winning wines at the San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition’s Public Tasting on February 18 at the Fort Mason Center’s Festival Pavilion in San Francisco.
Texas wineries who won Best of Class awards with their categories were:
- Brennan Vineyards – Viognier 2015 (Viognier – $25.00 and above)
- Haak Vineyards & Winery – Tempranillo 2015 (Tempranillo – $0.00 – $24.99)
- Los Pinos Ranch Vineyards – Sweet Blush Colibri (Dry Rose/Blush – RS >.25)

“This year, Texas wineries won more medals–including some of the top awards in the 2017 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition–than ever before,” said Bob Fraser, San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition executive director. “It is not surprising to me, as I recently visited the Texas Wine Country and was completely impressed with the quality of their wines.”
