October 2008
In a repeat of last year’s success, wines of the ESPIRITU DE CHILE range were honored with awards at the large international wine valuation „Vienna International Wine Challenge“: four silver medals again attest to the outstanding quality of the Chilean wine range.
Within the classic program category, silver medals were awarded to the Cabernet Sauvignon 2006, the Shiraz-Cabernet 2006 and the Cabernet Sauvignon Rosé 2007. Another silver medal was attributed to the Gran Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon.
2008 marked the fifth year for the AWC Vienna International Wine Challenge. This largest international wine contest in Austria takes place under the patronage of the Federal Minister of Agriculture, Forestry, and the Environment. In a blind taste test, 300 independent enologists and wine experts sampled and tested nearly 8,000 wines from throughout the world.
The presentation of results and the award ceremonies will be held in the presence of more than 2,500 invited wine experts and wine lovers in the course of the „Wine Gala Night 2007“ in the ballroom of Vienna’s City Hall on October 30,2008.
