The 2020 World Sparkling Wine Award winners have now been announced. Although the Awards faced some challenging circumstances this year, our tastings were able to take place remotely, and our judging panel was presented with a truly outstanding range of sparkling wines. We are now delighted to present this year’s winners.
This year’s World Sparkling Wine Awards were judged by a panel of international industry experts. As part of the prestigious World Drinks Awards programme, tasting would normally be completed in London, with the panel meeting to judge the entries. However, due to this year's extraordinary circumstances, our panel were able to complete the tastings from home to ensure the safety of all involved; this meant that while the panel could not meet in person, we could ensure our usual rigorous judging standards could be upheld.
Without further ado, here are this year’s winners:
