Restaurant and Retail 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 underwritten by the Lodi Tokay Rotary Club and employs a new and revolutionary method of wine judging and evaluation created by sensory scientists working with wine experts. Up to 1,100 wines from the United States and Canada will be judged at this event.

Sponsorship provides you with guaranteed availability of the top award-winning wines within each of the respective flavor categories or types, or the country/state/province or origin, and in the price parameters you need for promotion. These wines will be made available by the producers and specifically reserved for you.*

The sponsorship benefits in addition to access to award winning wines, include:
  • Recognition in all publicity, print and other media materials.
  • Two people from your organization may act as judges and they will be assigned 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
  • Special access for your management and staff to the background and selection processes employed via our on-line training program.

The Lodi International Wine Awards is a revolutionary new concept in wine judgings. We are the only wine competition to recognize different taste preferences among consumers and professionals. We are able to define by taste sensitivity and values and place judges and consumers in one of three groups based on taste preferences

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 able to discern their own taste preferences by an on line “test” and 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 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. 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

Please feel free to contact us directly with any questions or special requests. We are delighted to help design a customized program for your specific needs!
