Tria Wine World Cup Semifinal 1: Spain vs. South Africa

Spain has won the World Cup. South Africa never has. But wine isn't football, and blind tasting doesn't care about trophies. Spain brings centuries of tradition. South Africa brings thirty years of proving people wrong. No labels, no reputations, secret ballot. One advances to the final.

What It Is   Philly is hosting one world cup this summer. We’re hosting another. The Wine World Cup is a seven-match tasting tournament running June 9 through July 21. Eight celebrated wine-producing nations compete head-to-head. You taste. You vote. You crown a champion.

How It Works   Each class is a match between two competing nations across three rounds of side-by-side pours. After each round, you cast a secret ballot for the wine you preferred. The country with the most votes at the end of the night advances. Attend as many matches as you’d like; our ticket prices are easy on the wallet.

This event is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or associated with FIFA or the FIFA World Cup™.
Because of course it’s not; these are wine classes.
