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.

Run by the German publisher Meininger since 2001, in two main sessions a year (spring and summer) with more than 12,000 entries in total. Blind tasting on the OIV 100-point scale in panels of five to seven judges. Weight is moderate rather than major: medals are capped at 40% of entries in each category, looser than the OIV limit of 30%, entry is paid (€185 per wine in 2026), and the competition does not publish entry numbers per session. Medals from both sessions are shown here under one name.

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

Moderate weight

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.
