INVITATION LETTER For "Associate Judges"

The "THESSALONIKI WINE & SPIRITS TROPHY" invites wine-tasting experts aged up to 35 years to show their interest in participating as "Associate Judges" in this year's Competition that will take place in Thessaloniki from 13 to February 15, 2024.

This is an opportunity for young people, mainly professionals in the field of wine (restaurant/hospitality, sommelier, wine cellars, winemakers, etc.), to gain experience in taste evaluation of wines and spirits. It is also an excellent opportunity for young winemakers to practice and gain additional experience in wine tasting.

Associate Judges participate equally at the judges' tables during the Competitions process, although their scores will not count towards the results. The Competition will cover all meals (and the welcome dinner on Monday 12) and dinners during its duration but not accommodation and travel expenses.

The leading "Associate Judge" will have the smallest average deviation in the table's final scores to participate. If that score is acceptable, she/or he will be invited to the following event as an official judge.

The "Associate Judges" team was launched for the first time in 2018 with great success and results, hoping to create future wine judges that will benefit Greek wine on many levels. It is also an opportunity for young winemakers to gain experience in wine tasting.

Applicants should:
  • be aged up to 35 years,
  • be in the wine business, from viticulture and vinification to trade and consumer services,
  • have a Degree in a relevant subject and
  • know the English language very well
