Alliances du Monde^®
International Wine & Barrel Competition

First international Mark of Quality about wine and oak harmony

The 8^th edition of Alliances du Monde^® international Wine & Barrel competition will be held on October 13-14, 2020, in Noirlac Abbey, France.

In the heart of the most beautiful European oak forests, on the edge of the forest of Tronçais, an international competition will bring together and select the best wines matured in oak barrels.

Its ambition is therefore to highlight the quality of wines, which benefit from the best wine/oak expression by attributing, each year, medals that are reliable and thus representative.

A special place amongst international competitions: quality standards that go well beyond the norm.

Thanks to its stringent methodology: limitation on the number of wines tasted by each judge, ideal tasting conditions, strict application of international standards, stringent selection of expert judges, and a scientific approach to the analysis of results.

Samples delivery deadline September 12, 2020

For 20 years, Forum Œnologie organizes international competitions that gradually stood in the world through quality standards that go well beyond the norm.

Unique by their international scope and their demanding method, they have the singularity to allow qualitative confrontation between wines from a same grape variety (Chardonnay, Syrah, Muscat) or a same wine family made from similar winemaking methods, such as sparkling wines. The medals awarded by Chardonnay du Monde^® , Syrah du Monde^® , Muscats du Monde^® and Effervescents du Monde^® are recognized and reliable selection criteria.
