Chair of Tower Club Wine Awards (since its inception in 2003) CH’NG Poh Tiong
Gold Medal winners automatically find their way onto The Tower Club wine list for the entire 2024. That is a great incentive to take part. It is also a resounding vote of confidence by the club of the quality of the judging.
Gold and Silver Medal winners will be announced Friday 6 October 2023 at an Awards Night.
Although a private club (arguably Singapore’s most exclusive business club in the middle of the Central Business District itself), The Tower Club is opening Awards Night Dinner to the public.
This is a not-to-be-missed opportunity for those who have never stepped into its portals.
Held on Penthouse Level 62 in the Atlantic restaurant, diners will enjoy sweeping, breathtaking views of the Singapore skyline, an outstanding 8-hands dinner by four master chefs (priced at S$195 ++), delicious wine pairings, romantic live music, and be the very first to discover out the 51 Gold Medal wines (and whiskies) of the 17th Tower Club Wine Awards!
