SAKURA Japan Women’s Wine Awards 2026

 

We’re excited to invite South Australian wineries to participate in the 13th SAKURA Japan Wine Awards 2026 —Japan’s largest and most influential wine competition.

The SAKURA Awards are now open for entries for the 2026 competition. Judged exclusively by women from the wine, food, and hospitality industries, the Awards highlight wines that resonate with Japan’s discerning consumers and buyers.
 
South Australia has a strong track record at the SAKURA Awards, with many of our wineries receiving gold, double gold, and diamond medals over the years, building brand awareness and strengthening market presence in Japan. Showcase your label, connect with Japan’s leading importers, retailers, and sommeliers, and highlight the quality, diversity, and innovation that define South Australian wine.
