Ms. Linda Chen, President, Vice

said of the global wine events: "Following our debut of the Wynn
Signature Chinese Wine Awards in April, which honored the
finest wines of China, we now look
forward to hosting a series of captivating wine events around the
world. Our goal is to showcase the award-winning Chinese wines on
an international level, enhance the reputation of Chinese wineries
globally, and expand overseas consumer market demand for Chinese
wine."
Chinese wines are generating more headlines around the world,
and for all the right reasons. With every vintage, the quality and
diversity on offer is improving, and this was recently celebrated
by the Wynn Signature Chinese Wine Awards in
Macao. Wine experts and
enthusiasts assembled at Wynn Palace on April 13 for the inaugural Wynn Signature
Chinese Wine Awards. This event, in support of the global
recognition of Chinese wines, featured the best wineries, wines,
and top winemaking practices across China.
Wynn Signature Chinese Wine Awards is the largest
gathering of its kind to evaluate Chinese wines based on
international standards, shining a light on the country's thriving
winemaking industry. The awards featured more than 700 exceptional
wines from 200 wineries evaluated by a panel of 27 esteemed judges,
including seven Masters of Wine. Under the supervision of a
professional auditing firm, the competition used an internationally
recognized 100-point scoring system and blind tasting to select 23
award winners that exemplify quality. During the judging, which
took place in March, wine luminaries participated in dinners,
Masterclasses, and more at Wynn Macau and Wynn Palace.
The award-winning Chinese wines not only set industry benchmarks
for excellence domestically, but the recognition elevates their
prominence on the international wine scene as they compete
alongside renowned wines worldwide based on globally accepted
standards. As a result, the competition provides opportunities for
winemakers to expand their brands, develop high-end markets, and
discover cross-industry opportunities around the world.
As the host resort for the competition, Wynn Resorts Macau is
dedicated to elevating the benchmark for hospitality and seeks out
the best culinary experiences to share with guests while exercising
a deep commitment to promoting exceptional Chinese wines on a
global level.
Renowned as a UNESCO-designated "Creative City of Gastronomy",
Macao is the ideal host
destination for the Wynn Signature Chinese Wine Awards. It
is through events such as these that Wynn actively contributes to
elevating Macao's status as a
"World Center of Tourism and Leisure", injecting new vitality into
its ever-evolving tourism industry and accelerating the culinary
scene.
