Gold Medal for Our Chardonnay Cuvée 812 Vintage 2021

It is with immense pride that we share news that fills our hearts with joy: our Chardonnay cuvée 812 vintage 2021 has won a gold medal in the prestigious BEST VALUE SELECTION 2024 of ANIVIN DE FRANCE .


What is Anivin de France?

ANIVIN DE FRANCE , or National Interprofessional Association of French Wines , is an organization dedicated to promoting French wines throughout the world.

Created to represent and promote wines bearing the generic appellation "Vin de France", ANIVIN plays a key role in:

 

  • Highlighting winemaking talent through competitions such as the Best Value Selection 2024, where expert oenologists and international buyers evaluate wines according to rigorous criteria.
  • Export support, by helping French producers, like our urban winery in Lyon , to conquer new international markets.
  • Promoting the diversity of French terroirs, by celebrating accessible, creative and authentic wines.

 

Each year, the Best Value Selection 2024 features hundreds of wines competing against each other. The medals awarded guarantee consumers quality and excellent value for money, making it an essential benchmark for professional buyers.


Recognition among the best

Of the 577 French wines in competition, only 77 were awarded gold in the Best Value Selection category. We are honored that our signature cuvée Chardonnay 812, passionately produced in Lyon, is included in this list of excellence.

 

Towards new international horizons

This gold medal recognizes not only the quality of our Chardonnay, but also the hard work, passion, and expertise of our entire team .

It opens international doors for us, allowing us to showcase this unique vintage.

 

We extend our warmest thanks:

  • To the international oenologists and buyers for recognizing the exceptional character of this wine.
  • To Valérie Pajotin and the teams at ANIVIN DE FRANCE for their award and this valuable opportunity.
  • And to you, dear wine lovers, who inspire us every day to strive for excellence.

 

We share this success with all of you who are part of this wonderful adventure.
