The 2018 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition (SFCWC) received 6,960 entries from 35 states this year. 67 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).
173 Best of Class awards were given to major regions in addition to California and Oregon, and those included New York, Washington, and Texas.
The public will have a chance to taste many of the award winning wines at the San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition’s Public Tasting, which takes place on February 17 from 1:30-5:00 p.m. at the Fort Mason Center’s Festival Pavilion in San Francisco.
Best of Class Awards were also awarded to American wines recognized for extraordinary quality. Texas wineries who won Best of Class awards with their categories were:
- Saddlehorn Winery – Blanc du Bois NV (White Native American/Hybrid)
- Texas SouthWind Vineyard and Winery – Red Raspberry Fruit Wine (Fruit Wine)
