At Friday Juny 26th the eight edition of the ‘Concursul de Vinuri Rose’ took place in Casa Comana, a beautiful resort about 40 km south of Bucharest. After a pre-selection of 80 wines, 16 dry rosés were chosen by the organization to be tasted by the jurors. Five participating dry ‘aromatic’ rosés have been judged seperately.
Among the jurors were Romanian winelovers, importers, distributors and tree ‘foreign’ judges: Elizabeth Gabay MW from UK/France, Anne-Wies van Oosten from The Netherlands and Vasilis Ioannou from Greece. After tasting and scoring the sixteen rosés, the eight best went through a second round of tasting, followed by a final round of the three rosés that were considered best overall. The rosés that came out as third and second best received mention. The number one best rosé was rewarded ‘The Best’ of the ‘Concunsul de Vinuri Rosé’ wine contest.
