Volcanic Wine Awards 2026
Celebrating distinctive wines from volcanic terroirs
If you’re a wine producer or distributor interested in submitting wines, please do so through our submissions portal. Note that only wines from volcanic terroirs will be accepted. The competition will be held in New York City and submissions are open until 31 December 2025. If your wine is landed in the US and can be shipped from a US address, then we can extend the submissions deadline into January; we will need to receive your samples by January 29, 2026, (so we can no longer accept submissions that need to be shipped into the US).
