The awards, often called the 'Oscars' of the Ontario wine industry, are the only ones in Canada where the winning wines are chosen by the winemakers.

In addition, during the judging process, judges were asked to indicate if wines merited a Cuvée Gold designation, demonstrating international standards for excellence in quality.
