Summerhill Pyramid Organic Winery, Kelowna, BC, Wins the Number One Place at the 24th Annual Chardonnay Du Monde Wine Competition

by ·

The Summerhill Chardonnay Icewine is the only Canadian winery to be in the Top 10.

Stephen Cipes, Founder/Proprietor of the Kelowna, BC winery, notes, “Winning the number one Chardonnay wine in the world is a triumph for organic growing and winemaking. It recognizes being in harmony with nature, and the Okanagan Valley’s truly ideal pristine growing conditions, which have been bringing pride to all Canadians for the last 25 years.”

The Chardonnay du Monde® international competition recognizes the world’s best Chardonnay wines and is recognized as the most significant and legitimate qualitative competition for the distinction of best Chardonnay of the World.

Chardonnay du Monde® has progressively distinguished itself from other international competitions thanks to much stricter quality standards and faithfulness to its founding principles, which have driven its success over the years: diversity, quality and high standards.
