The list of the Top Hundred wines in Italy for 2010 has been published by journalists Paolo Massobrio and Marco Gatti and soon the list will appear in the bestselling publication Il Golosario. Among the Top Hundred this year we find the Valdobbiadene DOCG Prosecco Superiore Brut Cama from the Fasol Menin winery.
For the last nine years the two journalists with Il Papillon (the name of their consumer movement) have recognised the best wines of the year always excluding from the list any winery which has received the award in previous years. Up to today 900 wineries have been recognised. The 100 from 2010 will receive their awards at Golosaria which is taking place from November 6th to 8th at the Hotel Meli in Milan. The ceremony also offers visitors the opportunity to sample the award-winning wines.
The award is a challenge, explains Marco Gatti who started the prize nine years ago. We want to demonstrate the increasingly high quality of Italian wines today by offering consumers an opportunity to get to know a wide range of wines. This is different from the more traditional guides which are often the privilege of just a hundred or so labels.
