The World’s Finest Glass of Bubbly Awards 2017 Results

The results are in from The World’s Finest Glass of Bubbly Awards 2017. We would like to thank every wine label that submitted their wines to be judged by 36 of the world’s top wine professionals over two days at one of our main sponsors Marriott County Hall Hotel in Westminster. Each wine went through a detailed tasting to not only score it points for a medal, but also points for a relevant category in a totally new wine to judge wines to attract better understanding from consumers. Our judging was led by Champagne author and our Honorary Judge Michael Edwards and Head of Judging Tatiana Mann.
