The world’s toughest and most prestigious sparkling wine competition, The Champagne & Sparkling Wine World Championships 2020 (CSWWC), is delighted to announce a “record breaking year” smashing the 1,000 entry mark! Every year the CSWWC receives entries from up to 30 different countries and in 2020 a total of 128 Gold & 237 Silver medals have been awarded to 19 countries.  Champagnes were awarded 45 Gold medals and 32 Silver medals.

The Best in Class, National Champions and World Champions by Style were revealed at the CSWWC Virtual Awards Week 7th – 11th December.

For the first time since the competition began, the World Champion trophy awards had never been so close with Best in Class winners from around the world batting it out to be crowned with a CSWWC trophy. In the end it was Louis Roederer that was finally crowned Supreme World Champion for the Louis Roederer Cristal 2004 Rosé in Magnum. The Chairman’s Trophy, this year went to Midalidare Estate for the Mildalidare Estate NV Brut in magnum and The Tony Jordan Rising Star Trophy went to Portuguese sparkling wine producer Provam for the Provam NV Castas de Monção.

“This year was always going to be memorable for obvious reasons, yet, despite the global pandemic, we attracted a record-breaking number of entries. Every year the standard of Champagnes and sparkling wines entered gets better and better. The bar was set high from day one and the Trophy count certainly reflects this. However it is not only our mission to promote world class wines, but also to discover and reward new and exciting wines from established and emerging regions across the world, so I was particularly pleased to present Provam from Portugal with the Tony Jordan Rising Star trophy this year. Winning this trophy in addition to the Portuguese national trophy illustrates the potential of fully sparkling Vinho Verde.”
