Founder and judge Tom Stevenson commented “I am absolutely delighted to be celebrating our 11th Anniversary. This has been another great year for results, once again demonstrating how exciting the sparkling wine industry is. Over 10 years, this competition has established beyond doubt who the very best sparkling winemakers around the world are by their wines consistently winning top honours, yet every year brings success for new regions and new producers in established regions. We live in a golden era for sparkling wine! What’s terrific is that the medal wins come from both the largest producers and some of the smallest, and from long established to newcomers. Huge congratulations to all the medal winners!”
