In a major boost for producers, the Ridgeview estate in Sussex was last November named the world’s best winemaker in the International Wine & Spirit Competition 2018. This was the first time in the competition’s 49-year history that the award has been presented to an English producer.
Moulins de Citran 2009 is an example of just how seriously Aldi are now beginning to take their wine selection. This recently won a gold medal at the International Wine and Spirit Competition.

Sound the trumpets and man the ramparts because Petaluma, after a four year absence, is back in the UK. This is triumphant news for lovers of elite Aussie wine. Established in 1976, this famous winery has an ethos of sourcing its fruit from across South Australia, with each grape variety matched to the exact microclimate it is grown in.
In 2016, Prince William and Kate Middleton visited Canada as part of their Commonwealth tour. It was then that the rest of the world learned about one of the world’s best-kept secrets: British Columbia's wine country. Along their journey, the Duke and Duchess stopped in to taste the local fare, including food and drink sourced from the Okanagan Valley, a small region in Western Canada that is also home to Mission Hill Winery. In 1994, Mission Hill’s 1992 vintage won "Best Chardonnay" at the International Wine and Spirit Competition, making it the very first Okanagan winery to receive such high recognition.
