The Michelangelo’s 25th year is proving to be one of the most interesting competitions in the long history of the awards. With entries touching 1900 this year, and interesting new classes including the exciting Ready to Drink (RTD) categories and wine-based spritzers Michelangelo continues to grow and expand into a serious world class competition. Our judging panels were compiled this year of the cream of the crop of local Cape Wine Masters, sommeliers and award-winning wine-makers.
