The Decanter World Wine Awards (DWWA) 2024 has revealed its Top 20 Value Gold wines, showcasing the best wines under £15. These wines deliver exceptional quality for their price, making them ideal choices for everyday enjoyment without compromising on excellence.
The judging process involves blind tastings and evaluations by regional panels and co-chairs, ensuring that each selected wine offers outstanding value. See the DWWA site for tasting notes. I’ll be searching these out in the coming months.
