The Tasting:

According to Harvest Challenge spokesman, Christopher Sawyer, “The Harvest Challenge is a judge’s dream come true. Beyond varietal category and price point, this one-of-a-kind competition is based on appellation instead of mass-production. The end result is more definition of the wines made with grapes inside the boundaries of a specific viticultural area and distinct flavors that have helped  wines rise to the top of the scale in the global marketplace.”

Christopher Sawyer is an internationally-renowned sommelier, consultant, critic, public speaker and elite wine competition judge who travels the world exploring and sharing the latest trends in wine. Sawyer has been a personal sommelier for an array of luminaries, from the Getty Family to the Gorbachevs, as well as for Pixar/Disney’s John Lasseter.

The Harvest Challenge is a wine competition that bases its judging on a group of vineyards (or even vines) from the same region, belonging to a specific appellation, and sharing the same type of soil, weather conditions, grapes and winemaking savoir-faire, which contribute to give the specific personality to the wine.
