Trophies
THE BEST OF THE BEST
Producers awarded gold medals are then put forward to contest the overall trophy in their category
The IWSC trophies are awarded to the standout performers across a range of categories spanning grape varieties, different spirits, design and packaging. We also award trophies to the top producers from each region, as well as recognising the people and businesses who have shone within their sector over the previous year.
