The coveted Wine Trophy: this is what winners look like!

The hottest battle for the coolest, best wines has been fought: these are the 2024 Weintrophy winners!

A total of 850 wines of the very highest quality were sent into the race by their dedicated producers to take the coveted Weintrophy award home to the vineyards. After the most rigorous examination, the finalists remained - and once again their grape juice was tested down to the last detail and examined by 26 sommeliers (two thirds of whom were former graduates of the Bad Gleichenberg tourism schools) on the basis of strict criteria.

But now they have been recognized and can proudly display the coveted award label on their bottles - what a tremendous marketing advantage! The Trophy has long been a recognized seal of quality for wine connoisseurs, and the entire wine industry pays attention to this ranking, the first of its kind in 2024, which shows the top wine elite in our province at a glance.

You can find out who the winners are and who can be happy on these two pages. Among them are some familiar faces - but also some who are boldly breaking new ground with their vines. They were honored at a glittering gala on Thursday in the halls of the Bad Gleichenberg tourism schools.

Congratulations!
