rom April 18 to 20, 2008, a record total of4,321 different wines were judged at TheEquinox Resort in Manchester, Vermont. The2008 edition of the WineMaker International

Amateur Wine Competition once again repre-sented the largest and most diverse collection of amateurwines ever assembled under one roof. In fact, this year’scompetition also was the largest wine competition of anykind – commercial or amateur – in North America. The4,321 entries arrived from hobby winemakers livingthroughout North America in 48 American states and 8Canadian provinces and as far away as Australia, Italyand Israel. Over the course of three days, experiencedjudging panels worked through 822 flights, examining

each wine using the UC-Davis 20-point wine scale evalu-ating appearance, aroma, taste, aftertaste and overallimpression. The wines were entered in 50 different cate-gories and included an astonishing array of varietals andwine styles. Kit wines competed alongside fresh-grapeentries in this blind tasting. Entries were awarded gold, sil-ver, bronze and best of show medals based on the aver-age score given by the judging panel. The GrandChampion wine was the top overall scoring wine acrossall categories. The Winemaker of the Year goes to theentrant with the best average score over 5 of their bestscoring wines. The Club of the Year was given to the clubwhose members won the most medals and the Retailer ofthe Year awards was given to the winemaking supply storewhose customers outperformed other shops. The medalwinners are listed on the following pages.
