Decanter World Wine Awards: 2014 – first day of judging

Tobacco Dock


Decanter World Wine Awards: Loire judging starts today
Off to Tobacco Dock, the new home for the Decanter World Wine Awards, this morning for the first day of judging this year's Loire entries. Overall more than 15,000 wines have been entered for 2014 DWWA. Fortunately the journey from Forest Hill to Wapping is on the Overground, which is not affected by the Tube strike.

As well as the change of venue another big innovation this year is that all the scores and tasting notes will be entered by judges using iPads.

On my distingished panel today are:
