A total of 960 wines were selected, respectively 651 for the section of conventional wines 5StarWines and 309 for Wine Without Walls, the section dedicated to wines certified organic, biodynamic or produced by companies that adhere to special sustainability protocols.
These are the wines that have obtained a score equal to or greater than 90/100 following the blind tasting carried out by the international jury of the event.
