For the seventh time, Ferrari Trento is the best producer in the world and won the prestigious title of 'Sparkling Wine Producer of the Year' at The Champagne & Sparkling Wine World Championships, the authoritative competition dedicated exclusively to bubbles.

Thirteen gold medals were won by theLunelli Group winery in the 2024 edition: from the non vintage wines, such as the Ferrari Brut, through the Maximum and Perlé lines, to the Ferrari Riserva Lunelli and the Giulio Ferrari. "A result that underlines not only the excellence of the individual Trentodocs," say the company, "but also the House's ability to best express the potential of the territory by declining them in a wide range of labels, each with its own identity but consistent in style.

"We are extremely proud of this recognition," said Matteo Lunelli, president and CEO of Ferrari Trento, "which rewards the work, passion and talent of our entire team. It is an achievement that testifies to our continuous pursuit of excellence and the extraordinary vocation of Trentino and its mountain viticulture, now consecrated at an international level".

But there is more than just Ferrari: Trentodoc confirms itself as the most awarded denomination in Italy, winning 73 medals, of which 29 gold and 44 silver, in a world competition in which this year almost a thousand labels produced in 20 countries participated. For Trentodoc, this is a record both in terms of golds and total medals, which had never been so many.

An acknowledgement that comes just a few days before the third edition of the Trentodoc Festival, a widespread event that from 20 to 22 September will animate Trento and its production territories to discover, tell and taste mountain bubbles.

"By winning "Producer of the Year" for the fourth consecutive time and for seven of the competition's eleven years, Ferrari Trento has become the most successful bubbly producer on the planet. Unlike other awards," said the founder and president of the Tom Stevenson prize, "this one is solely based on the number of medals won, which makes the consistency, year after year, with which such a high level of quality is achieved, both in the standard and magnum formats, but above all across the entire range, even more remarkable. In 2024, at the Champagne & Sparkling Wine World Championships, Trentodoc won more gold and silver medals than any other Italian region. Considering the excellent quality and consistency shown in all the types presented over the last eleven years, I am amazed by Trentodoc's path of success"..

According to the President of the Trentodoc Institute Stefano Fambri, "the 2024 edition of The Champagne & Sparkling Wine World Championships confirmed the excellence achieved by Trentodoc production. Thanks to the work of the67 sparkling wine houses associated with the Institute, the collective brand continues to gain authority on the international sparkling wine scene. We are proud of this achievement and will continue to strive to protect our identity and constantly monitor quality. I would like to thank Tom Stevenson and all his staff'.

The awards ceremony will be held on 24 October at Merchant Taylors Hall in London. Ferrari Trento is also in nomination for the title of 'European Winery of the Year' by the American magazine Wine Enthusiast, a title it had already won in 2015. The winner of the category will be announced on 14 November and the award ceremony will be held in January 2025.
