Golden League - the League of Wine Champions
The highest endowed wine award worldwide
Details of the Golden League
With the Golden League, DWM introduced in 2014 an additional award for the submitters of the various Wine Trophies, which is only reserved to the producers. In order to offer opportunities to the smaller producers to position themselves in addition to the big players based on their quality, different categories have been introduced here that were formed on the basis of the company size. Companies that buy additional quantities of wine or grapes and market them under their own label are classified according to the total amount produced. This leads to an objective comparison other companies of its size.
The categories
Overall awards will be given in different categories:
• There will be a category each for producers with sizes up to 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 100, 250, 500, and over 500 hectares.
• There will also be a category for cooperatives up to 250, up to 500, and over 500 hectares.
• For sparkling wine producers, there will be a category each for up to 25, up to 50, and over 50 hectares.
• Generally for fortified wine producers (Port wine, Madeira, Sherry, etc.).
The division into these categories is the best way to ensure an objective classification.
