Sauvignon’s outstanding aromatic qualities make it one of the most popular varietals across the globe. Consumer recognition prompted the inception of a Concours Mondial or global competition, open to all producer wine regions in both hemispheres. The competition is designed to: - promote good quality Sauvignon varietal wines, - boost production and sensible drinking of Sauvignon wines - introducing the public to this multi-faceted, versatile grape variety The Sauvignon grape variety boasts recognition and popularity on the international scene, both at trade and consumer level. The popularity of Sauvignon blanc prompted us to create a steering committee to promote dialogue.
