2025
This year’s edition of GROW du Monde saw a total of 255 wine samples submitted from 8 countries, evaluated by an 18-member international jury, including three Masters of Wine. Once again, the panel’s work was supported by the WineCompass judging system a platform already proven many times over at the VinAgora International Wine Competition.
Wines competed in 6 different categories for prestigious awards. Hungary submitted the most entries (79), followed by Croatia (67) and Serbia (51). The Czech Republic entered 39 wines and impressively earned medals for all but two. Slovenia also participated with 14 wines.
Of the 255 samples, 187 received medals. In addition, 12 Platinum awards were given, with four of those wines also earning the top-level “Trophy” distinction (a fifth Trophy was awarded to a gold medal winner). In total, five wines reached the absolute top of the podium with Trophy honors, and one received a Special Prize.
This year’s medal distribution was as follows: 48 Gold, 60 Silver, and 66 Bronze medals.
2024
Exceeding all expectations, 349 wines from 7 countries entered the competition, judged by a panel of judges from 10 different countries, including several Masters of Wine and Master Sommeliers. In a competition like this, the judges are looking for the most authentic wines, made from the grape varieties in which the founders and organisers have long been firm believers. The complex judging of wines allows an understanding of this great grape variety, which this year was achieved using WineCompass wine judging software.
