The World’s Best Wine Lists Awards organised by the leading UK Publication, The World of Fine Wine, are judged by prestigious wine experts and honour exceptional wine lists around the world. Entries are assessed by some of the world’s leading wine critics and Masters of Wine, on a world class judging panel.
Criteria for the award include: depth, interest, quality and value of the wine selection, clarity, accuracy, completeness and suitability in terms of the cuisine and the establishment.
This award comes on the heels of winning in 2018, Best Regional Wine List Europe, as well as attaining the prestigious three-star award annually since 2015 and Jury Prize in 2015, from the World’s Best Wine Lists Awards.
