Although rosé is probably the oldest type of wine known to man it had to wait a long time to achieve popularity both among wine lovers and wine experts. Nowadays we witness the true rise of rosé and it is just natural that professional evaluation of the great diversity of those wines should follow.
The International Rosé Championship has been designed and launched in order to give rosé wines the appreciation they deserve and to create the space where judges could devote their whole attention to analyse and discuss the richness of taste and all the nuances of rosé wines. We believe that presenting the wide range of rosé wines and awarding medals to the best of them during our contest will further translate into growing popularity of these wines among wine consumers all over the world.
