Decanter World Wine Awards 2010 - The Australian Results

Decanter World Wine Awards - The Australian Results

Another day, another wine show.

Peculiar that the results for this get released the day after those of the International Wine Challenge (though it's all tied in with the London Wine Fair). Decanter regional trophies already announced though, so they have it over the IWC on that at least.

Anyway, the results are below. Plenty of crossover results with the IWC and generally another strong lineup, particularly the trophy winners. Full results here

  1. Looking at this list again I think it looks a bit generic when compared to the IWC results, less 'interesting' wines and more 'show wines' here.

    Still, plenty to like in this lineup.

  2. Australia's Charles Melton is now a legendary figure, not only in this country but also in the UK.
