North Carolina Fine Wines Society - The Entries are In!

January 27, 2017

We are thrilled to announce that we have had just over 145 entries into the Inaugural North Carolina Fine Wines (NCFWS) competition from 40 participants. A huge Thank You to all those who have helped to make this a success. Our goal was to have 100 entries for our first year's competition, and you proved to us that there is a demand for this type of competition.


We also would like to say Thank You to those vineyards that contacted us with such great enthusiasm, but could not submit wines this year due to limited supplies. What a great problem to have.  We look forward to working with you next year! We'd still love to see you at the Awards Gala or one of our three ShowCase Events in Cary, Charlotte, or Asheville.

By the way, all these events are open to the Public. Just as most of the people who have had the opportunity to visit the vineyards know, wine is always served with outstanding North Carolina hospitality.

Just so you know, the Awards Gala in Winston-Salem is down to the last 50 tickets for sale ($125 per person). The Black Tie Optional event will be a very relaxed 6 course meal served with wines from our Board and Advisory Board's vineyards. The evening will include the announcements of the winning Wines and Vineyards for the Inaugural North Carolina Fine Wines Competition.  The winners will be announced and we'll also hear about the state of North Carolina's Wine Industry. The 2017 Fine Wines Case will be announced and those will be the wines that will be served at the three ShowCase events.  It is a great way to educate yourself on North Carolina's Fine Wines.

The event is from 6:00 - 9:00 PM.  Dinner Service will relaxed and you will have plenty of time to enjoy the meal and wines. With six courses and six wines, we'll be pacing the meal appropriately.
