Restaurant Sponsorship Opportunity!
We invite you to consider becoming a sponsor of The Lodi International Wine Awards
–a unique and revolutionary wine competition taking place in Lodi, California, in
March, 2008.
The Lodi International Wine Awards employs a new and revolutionary
method of wine judging and evaluation created by sensory scientists working with
wine experts. We anticipate more than 1,000 wines from the United States and Canada
will be judged at this event.
Sponsorship provides sponsors guaranteed availability
of the top award-winning wines within each of the respective flavor categories or
types, or the country/state/province or origin> we will make available and reserve
wines in the price parameters you need for promotion. We understand you may have
special program and price point needs and requirements. You will be able to select
those wines from among the highest-ranking wines in their respective categories.
In addition to award winning wines, sponsorship benefits also include:
- Recognition in all publicity, print and other media materials.
- Your organization may designate two people to act as judges and represent your business. They will be assigned to a judging panel based on an evaluation of their taste preferences, etc.
- Ongoing access to our unique wine and taste survey and research data which will
be generated as one of the core elements of this event
- You will have access to a special training section at www.budometer.com. There you will find the means to train your management and staff on how to best promote the wines you have sponsored and explain how they were selected. There will also be a section to assist your staff in helping your guests and customers discover how taste sensitive they are, and which of the wines might be most delicious for them, with a simple process for “getting their buds done” that can be performed in a retail or restaurant setting
The Lodi International Wine Awards is the only wine competition to recognize taste
preference among consumers and professionals.
Our judges will be individually tested and assessed for flavor sensitivity and preferences. Each judging panel will be balanced to reflect three major parameters of taste. Consumers will be also be able to discern their own taste preferences by an on line “test”. They can then select those award - winning wines that best meet their individual preferences. A special “search engine” will help them find the retailers carrying those wines.
This event is sponsored by the Lodi Tokay Rotary Club an is limited during this
our inaugural year to wines of the United States and Canadian only. We hope to expand the competition in the years ahead to include the wine producing countries of the world.
Our event is new, revolutionary and ground breaking. We are working closely with
eminent sensory scientists and researchers from universities and private business,
and expect to have one of the more exciting, prestigious and visible wine events
of the year!
Please contact us directly with any questions or special requests. We will be delighted to help design a customized sales or marketing program to fit your specific needs!
