Time to Sniff, Swirl, Spit

wine-judge-2Two weeks from today, nearly 100 international wine judges will converge on Fairplex to sniff, swirl and spit their way through more than 3,000 wines – all in attempt to crown the best of the best.

 The Los Angeles International Wine & Spirits Competition begins Mwine-poureray 27. Right now, wine staff are busy preparing the thousands of bottles of wine, spirits and extra virgin olive oil for judging, washing thousands of glasses and printing thousands of labels for the blind testing. It’s a huge undertaking, our competition!

Keep checking back to find out the behind-the-scenes buzz. We will also have some special guests blogging their thoughts about the competition, so stay tuned.

And don’t forget the public’s first opportunity to taste the medal winners is June 20 at Wine & Cars Under the Stars - a fun evening of classic wine and classic cars which benefits the foundations at Fairplex.
