Turn Your Wine Enthusiast Rating into a Powerful Marketing Tool
A strong rating from Wine Enthusiast enhances consumer trust and drives sales. With Label Advertising, you can maximize your wine’s exposure by showcasing its rating and review across Wine Enthusiast’s influential print and digital platforms.
Submit Your Wine for a Wine Enthusiast Rating
Wine Enthusiast’s Submit for Rating program offers wineries the opportunity to have their wines professionally reviewed by our expert tasting panel. A strong rating can enhance brand credibility, increase consumer trust, and boost sales.
How It Works:
- Submit Your Wine – Fill out the submission form with the required details.
- Send Samples – Provide wine samples for our tasting panel to evaluate.
- Expert Review – Your wine is reviewed and rated based on quality, taste, and style.
- Results & Promotion – If selected, your rating is published in Wine Enthusiast magazine and online, reaching a global audience of wine lovers and industry professionals.
(Please Note: All wines appear online in our searchable wine database at www.wineenthusiast.com/ratings. Only a selection of these ratings and reviews will appear in print in the Buying Guide.)
A Wine Enthusiast rating builds trust, boosts sales, and increases visibility in retail, online, and tasting rooms. If your wine is featured in our Buying Guide or database, you unlock exclusive marketing opportunities, including print and digital label ads, social media promotions reaching 1.5M+ followers, and e-newsletter placements for premium exposure.
