26th Styrian Wine Trophy – how to celebrate wine!
On 4 May 2023, the Styrian Wine Trophy gala was once again held in grand style at the Bad Gleichenberg tourism schools. The DAC origin system was implemented for the first time at the Styrian Wine Trophy and the number of categories was expanded to 15. The tastings were once again held in the presence of a notary and, thanks to the excellent conditions in the 2022 wine year, 1000 wines were submitted.
In the run-up to the event, 45 finalists, i.e. 3 finalist wines in each of 15 categories, were filtered out by means of tastings. The 15 winners were then selected by a jury consisting exclusively of graduate sommeliers, who were put together as part of a new co-operation between the WIFI Wein Welt and the WIFI.
One or two winegrowers were rewarded for their achievements with multiple nominations – such as the Kodolitsch winery, which led the top field with 2 awards from 3 nominations, or the Pfeifer winery, which also took home 2 trophies in 2 nominated categories.
The evening opened with culinary fireworks created by 3 top representatives of their guild. None other than the JRE (Jeune Restaurateur Europe) chefs Richard Rauch from the Rauch siblings, Markus Rath from Schlosskeller Südsteiermark and Jürgen Csencsits from Gasthaus Csencsits spoilt the guests with delicacies. The 15 winners were then announced and tasted, accompanied by a tasting menu. Afterwards, the guests were able to taste the equally outstanding finalist wines.

The Styrian Wine Trophy took place for the 24th time this year and is proof of the long-standing close cooperation between the Bad Gleichenberg tourism schools and the Styrian wine production. Above all, the training to become a Young Sommelier, a programme that has been in existence for more than 20 years and has already been completed by more than 600 students, is an important component. The consistently outstanding results in the Young Sommelier competitions, which have been won twice, attest the high quality of the wine training at the Bad Gleichenberg Tourism Schools.

24. Styrian Wine Trophy
Despite the pandemic, the Styrian Wine Trophy took place once again this year for the 24th time under the strictest security precautions.
In a 3-day wine tasting, the finalists and winners of the 24th Styrian Wine Trophy, which was again held in the presence of the notary Valentina Herk, were chosen from over 900 wines
only by issues such as efficacy and safety but also by thehypertension tadalafil generic.
. This year’s competition also featured a novelty – for the first time, the popular trophy was also awarded in the category “Prädikatswein”. 39 finalists, i.e. 3 finalists in each of 19 categories, were filtered out by means of tastings. The 12 winners were determined by a 14-member jury on the last afternoon.
On Friday 23 April, the award ceremony took place at the Bad Gleichenberg Tourism School, which of course complied with all COVID19 safety and hygiene regulations.
One or two wineries were rewarded for their achievements with multiple nominations. Among them the Pfeifer Winery, which leads the top field with 2 awards for 2 nominations, or the Frauwallner Winery and the List Winery, which were each nominated in 3 categories.
The trophies were presented by the Vice President of the Chamber of Agriculture Maria Pein, notary Valentina Herk, the Styrian Director of Viticulture Werner Luttenberger, the Wine Queen Katrin Dokter, tasting manager Martin Hartinger and school and campus director Peter Kospach.
“We are very pleased to announce the winners of the 24th Styrian Wine Trophy today. After more than a year of Corona crisis, it is especially important to support our winegrowers in terms of advertising. Awards like the Styrian Wine Trophy are an important quality criterion that influences the purchasing decisions of many wine lovers. And for our students, many of whom are undergoing training as young sommeliers, it is a very special experience,” says director Peter Kospach.
