The next time you’re in the Colloca Estate Winery tasting room, take a glance at our awards cabinet … we’ve won a lot of them since the first time we entered a decade ago. This year is no different. Colloca Estate Winery wines have won big in the New York Wine Classic. A great sportsman once said, “It’s good to win awards, but it’s more important to win together!” and that’s what we do here at Colloca Estate Winery. “It’s the wines that carry the awards around their necks, but it’s the people who work here that won them,” says Dr, Chris Colloca, CEO, Founder, and Chief Wine Taster at the winery. “Making award-winning wine is part terroir, part science, part art, and a whole lot of hard work. Around here everyone puts in the effort it takes to make superior wine and I’m as proud of them as I am of our wine”. “When we talk about the quality of our wines,” added Dr. Colloca, “We’re also talking about the quality of our people. And, that’s what makes all the difference”.
Colloca wines recently won several more awards in the New York International Wine Competition, a prestigious competition that had over 1400+ wines from 24+ countries around the world, with top wine buyers judging the products by their category and price.
Hello Colloca Estate Winery, Congratulations on your win at the New York International Wine Competition. In its 14th Year, the New York International Wine Competition (NYIWC) had over 1400+ wines from 24+ countries around the world, with top wine buyers judging the products by their category and price. This was an interesting competition, for we took the competition VIRTUAL this year. Our team personally delivered the samples to the judges' home or business in the New York Area. While the judges missed the camaraderie of being around other fellow wine buyers, they did enjoy tasting the wines at their own pace. The judges were thrilled by the high quality of wine submitted from so many regions and countries. We look forward to the 15th Annual NYIWC in May 2025! Here is what you won: Colloca Cabernet Sauvignon 2021: Silver -93 Colloca Casa Bianco 2022: Silver -93 Colloca Casa Rosso 2021: Silver -92 Colloca Cayuga White Free Run 2022: Bronze -91 Colloca Colloca Estate Winery: indv -New York Rose Winery of the Year Colloca GSM Grenache Shiraz Mourverde 2022: Gold -95 Colloca Melia Eris Rose 2022: Gold -95
