Concept
This event is unique in terms of its scope, its method and therefore its ambition:
- International in scope:
More than 22 countries.
More than 340 wine samples.
More than 60 international expert judges, including 50% from outside France.
- A strict method:
Compliance with international wine competition rules (ŒNO 2/94) and strict application of the ISO 9002 Quality Assurance standard.
Guaranteed implementation of scoring criteria for international competitions.
Rigorous selection of the panel of expert judges.
Training in tasting methodology at the Institut Paul Bocuse, with individual assessment of each taster.
Faultless, quality-driven organisation: limitation of the number of wines per jury and ideal tasting conditions (sensory isolation, proper tasting rhythm, etc.)
Secure computer processing of results by the Services Actions Qualité company.
- Ambition:
To award reliable and thus representative medals each year, reflecting the founding motto of Effervescents du Monde®: diversity, quality and high standards. - Official Certification :
The rules of the Effervescents du Monde® wine competition have been set in compliance with the French government bulletin dated 16 December 1993.
This compliance was confirmed by the French consumer-protection agency, DGCCRF, on 21 May 2003. As such, the competition is authorised to award quality medals.
