Gold medals galore for Henkell & Co.

rsz_alfredgratienbrutlandscapeMUNDUS vini and Berlin Wine Trophy competitions once again confirm Wiesbaden winery’s outstanding quality.

The product portfolio of Henkell & Co. is characterised by superior quality – a fact which was just confirmed anew by juries of experts at two prestigious wine competitions. At the MUNDUS vini Grand International Wine Award 2016 Summer Tasting, products from the Wiesbaden winery – including the flagship cuvée bearing the founder’s name, Adam Henkell Chardonnay – garnered two Grand Golds and seven gold medals. No less than 16 different brands were awarded gold at the 2016 Berlin Wine Trophy. The big winner is the exquisite and exclusive Champagne brand Alfred Gratien from Épernay, which came away from the tasting events with eleven gold medals.
