About TEXSOM
TEXSOM was founded in 2005 as the Texas Sommelier Conference to help promote professional wine service standards, outline paths for further beverage education and certification, and raise public awareness about professional standards and certifications for sommeliers. What began as an opportunity for Texas sommeliers to learn and train evolved into an international event for beverage professionals from all tiers of the industry to network and grow. TEXSOM took over the already successful and well-respected Dallas Morning News Wine Competition and changed the name to TEXSOM International Wine Awards (IWA). Today, TEXSOM Awards has a global quality standard and is recognized as the most selective competition in the United States due to the roster of international judges who participate. TEXSOM fosters relationships, facilitates learning, encourages critical thinking, and advances the industry with a look to the future while embracing deep gratitude for all who have committed time, effort, and resources to the mission, especially for those who first believed in the vision from the beginning.
