Results of the 2013 WineAlign World Wine Awards of Canada (The Worlds)
Welcome to the complete results of the WineAlign World Wine Awards of Canada.
The wines were grouped in flights by price and variety and or style and the results were sliced and diced on the strength of numbers. All the large categories were tasted by price: Under $15, $15 to $25; and $25 to $50. The largest categories yielded Category Champions and Judges’ Choice selections regardless of price, in effect the best of the best. We also declared the best wine from each price category.
Categories with smaller entry numbers were considered for Judges’ Choice and best of price categories where it made sense. Each of the wines recognized were judged at least twice, if not three times, by a minimum eight judges and often by as many as twelve or sixteen.
We have also put together some top value wines by country and perhaps the most valuable list of all the very best under $15.
Search by the style and grape variety categories in which the wines were grouped and judged, presented in alphabetical order. We have provided links that will take you to the WineAlign review(s), where the numerical ratings and reviews are presented by individual WineAlign critics/judges.
