5.7.16 Medals for Sherry at IWSC

This year’s competition has again seen many Sherries (49) win medals. Listed below are the highest scoring non-supermarket wines. Lustau is as always a winner, but there are some notable absences.  It costs £130 per entry, which puts off many small producers - and there are 17 Lustau wines in the medals! And there are lots of similar wine competitions, so some bodegas must spend a fortune. As usual the medal winners are those who can afford to enter their wines.
