About the Indy International Wine Competition.
The Indy International Wine Competition is the largest scientifically organized and independent wine competition in the United States, the world's largest wine market. More than 3,000 commercial entries from 12 countries and 39 US states will be evaluated by our distinguished 80 judges. Wine writers and winemakers, winegrowers and enologists, chefs and sommeliers, wine distributors, retailers and consumers meet every year in Indianapolis, the heart of America, a truly central place for your wines to be seen and recognized.

The Indiana State Fair Wine Competition began in 1973 as an Indiana-only event. The competition began admitting entries from across the world in 1992 under Richard Vine, Purdue University Enology Professor Christian Butzke took over the leadership of the competition in 2006.

“It is gratifying to see the Indy International’s continued success,” says Butzke, Chief Judge. “Wineries from all over the world value the medals they receive from this competition.”
