International in scope:

• More than 35 countries.
• More than 900 wine samples.
• More than 300 international expert judges, including 55% from outside France.

A strict method:

• Compliance with international wine competition rules (ŒNO 2/94) and strict application of the ISO 9002 Quality Assurance standard.
• Guaranteed implementation of scoring criteria for international competitions.
• Rigorous selection of the panel of expert judges.
• Training in tasting methodology at the Institut Paul Bocuse, with individual assessment of each taster.
• Faultless, quality-driven organisation: limitation of the number of wines per jury and ideal tasting conditions (sensory isolation, proper tasting rhythm, etc.)
• Secure computer processing of results by the Services Actions Qualité company.

Ambition:

• To award reliable and thus representative medals each year, reflecting the founding motto of Chardonnay du Monde®: diversity, quality and high standards.
