Why this weight
How the class was assigned.
The class is a judgement about the competition, not about the wines. It rests on four public grounds, and what we relied on is printed here in plain text.
Held yearly in Daejeon, South Korea, since 2012 by Deutsche Wein Marketing, the organiser of the Berliner Wine Trophy, together with the city. Under OIV patronage: blind tasting and the OIV cap of 30% of entries. Weight is moderate rather than major: entry is paid (€145 per wine in 2026) and the field is very large — about 3,400 wines in 2025.
What decides a class
Blind tasting
Is the tasting blind, and are the rules published?
Share of medals
What share of entries leaves with a medal?
The jury
How is the jury composed, and how independent is it of the entrants?
Cost of entry
What does entry cost, and is marketing sold alongside the medal?
Where we cannot establish these, the class stays unassigned — a guessed grade is worse than an honest gap.
Weight class
A visible competition with a partly published methodology. The medal counts, but is not equal to a major one.

Medalists
Every award from this competition in our catalogue.
Grouped by the year the award was given, newest first. A medal belongs to a batch rather than to a wine in general, so the vintage of the awarded batch is printed on the row.

A row marked claimed is known from the producer or a shop rather than from the competition's own results. Medals are weighted by how trustworthy the competition is — they are never summed as equals, and a wine without awards is not worse than one with a pay-to-play medal. How we weigh awards.
