Under the epic Rubens ceiling in London's Banqueting House, a new competition for wine estates was launched a few weeks ago, showcasing the top 50 wine destinations in the world.
An international jury of about 500 wine and travel experts determined the world's best wine estates to visit. The judges took into account a large number of factors and you find on the list big names like Robert Mondavi, Antinori or Château Margaux also less known estates.
The list ranges from wineries that thrill with modern architecture to small boutique wineries to historic wineries, to wineries with gourmet restaurants, to wineries with a classic car or art collection, an award-winning Infinity pool or a program for sports enthusiasts - all 50 listed wineries offer that special something, apart from top quality wines, of course.
Among the World's 50 Best Wine Estates to visit, there are 3 German estates:
Weingut Dr. Loosen (Mosel) #10,
Schloss Johannisberg (Rheingau) #21, and
Schloss Vollrads (Rheingau) #33.
We have been to all three estates on recent visits by ombiasy WineTours.
