2020 American Fine Wine Competition – Texas Results

The 13^th annual American Fine Wine Competition was judged January 18-20, 2020 at the Florida International University Chaplin School of Hospitality & Tourism Management in North Miami. Thirty-two judges determined the medals from over 850 wines from several states,

The American Fine Wine Competition (AFWC) is exclusive and is by invitation-only. Only wines tasted and considered “world-class” are invited by an AFWC judge or one of the competition’s Wine Acquisition Team members. The mission of AFWC is to seek out those wines that are the best of the best.

“Nowhere can one taste so many incredible world-class wines – not at an event, not a day in wine country, not a tasting – nowhere but here,” said Shari Gherman, co-founder of the AFWC. “It’s a true celebration with amazing wine and food, music, and terrific people for a great cause.”
