International PIWI Wine Award in collaboration with WINE SYSTEM
The fungus-resistant breeds are gaining ground worldwide, not least because of weather extremes brought by climate change with a noticeable impact on wine growing. PIWI International eV is convinced that these grapes will rise to future climate challenges; moreover, they will decisively contribute to the regeneration of the ecological system. This fact is the main reason for the association to promote the exchange between research, breeding and wine-growing, as well as the communication with consumers, for 20 years. Only the acceptance by the latter ones is the linchpin of the entire success of this "new" grape type. The International PIWI Wine Award annually focuses on the PIWIs and repeatedly demonstrates that the right know-how is the key to wine excellence that does not lag behind the established ancestors.
Differentiated ratings according to PAR® enable the tasters to approach the diversity of this competition objectively and beyond simple comparative tests. In this way, every wine submitted receives comprehensible documentation.
