That’s great news. As a “trainee” judge at the IWSC I was impressed with integrity of the whole judging process. I never did taste any Portuguese though – my 2 days were Argentina and Italy.
Good luck!

Colin, that´s good to have a confirmation from an ‘insider’. There is always plenty of speculation about the integrity of certain wine competitions, and that’s one reason we try to be very selective in the competitions we enter, and avoid the doubtful ones! I hope you are lucky and get to judge Portuguese wines next time!
