Winning awards for the wines we
produce at Nissley Vineyards is very gratifying. On this page is a
complete listing of our winners in several competitions that were entered
recently. If you would like to place an order, please see the To
Order page.
Please
keep in mind that not all wines are submitted for
judging, so please do not assume that a wine is inferior because it has not
won an award. Similarly, even though Naughty Marietta is one of our most
popular wines, it does not always win awards. We submit our wines for judging, and we relay the results to our
customers so that they will feel more comfortable about selecting a wine that is
unknown to them.
The
awards are vintage-specific. If the wine does not qualify for a vintage
date, we refer to the copyright date, displayed at the bottom or side of the
wine label in small print. This copyright date is the same as the year
that the fruit was grown.
Awards do not necessarily indicate
a wine that you will like. You are the best judge of that.
A winning wine on this listing may now be sold
out, but this list is not kept strictly up-to-date in that regard. After a
winner has been sold out, the next vintage will most likely be available in our
shops. On the other hand, some recent winners may have not yet been
released. The Wine Prices page is a more
accurate indication of the wines which are currently available in the shops.
Wines that have not yet been released can be obtained by special order.
Sorry: wines will not be available for sampling until they have been
released. If you would like to be notified as soon as the wine is released
or if you would like to place a special order, please use the contact numbers
above.
