Conduct of the wine competition and operation of the panels<\/strong><\/p>\n Upon receipt of the samples, the organiser of the competition will appoint a panel of national experts, who will examine the samples received and determine whether the information on the bottles matches the information given on the entry form. They will correct any errors and exclude any samples that do not comply with these rules. Then, in accordance with the rules, the panel will classify the wines based on the characteristics indicated on the entry form. If necessary, they will determine these characteristics themselves.<\/span><\/p>\n Compliance with the rules of the wine competition is the responsibility of the presidency. The presidency will consist of three members, as follows:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The president and expert consultants will not participate in the judging, but at least one will always be present on site.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The wines will be evaluated by international jury panels. Each panel will consist of 5-7 recognised tasting experts. The organising country will nominate up to 50% of the members of the jury. The other, foreign jury members will come from different countries. The composition of the panels will be determined by the organisers.<\/span><\/p>\n The work of each panel will be overseen by its panel chair. The President of the Wine Competition may also assist in the performance of these duties.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The panel chair will be responsible for the following:<\/span><\/p>\n The anonymity of the wines must be maintained throughout the tasting and the following must be respected:<\/span><\/p>\n Water and bread are available to the jury members while judging. There will be breaks during the judging, when other food and drinks may also be served.<\/span><\/p>\n Decisive criteria for establishing the wine sample sequences and the tasting order are:<\/span><\/p>\n The wines will be judged at the following temperature: 16-19\u00b0C.<\/span><\/p>\n At the start of each tasting series, the panels will hold at least one calibration tasting (introductory wine), during which they can discuss members\u2019 scores, in the interest of developing relatively balanced review requirements. The members of the jury will work in total silence, without giving any indication of their impression of the sample. Before the presentation of each sample, the members of the panel will receive an electronic evaluation sheet by electronic means; this contains the technical details of the sample to be tasted. At the end of the evaluation, the software collects the evaluation sheets and checks they have been completed correctly. Once all members of the panel have finished, the panel chair will validate the result of the sample evaluation.<\/span><\/p>\n The members of the panel may not obtain a copy of the evaluation sheet and may not gain awareness of the scores or awards given to each wine on that day before the tasting is complete.<\/span><\/p>\n IV. Evaluation sheet<\/strong><\/p>\n Evaluation of the wines will take place using tablets and a computer-assisted 100-point positive review sheet as recommended by the World Federation of Major International Wine and Spirits competitions (VinoFed), the UIOE and the OIV.<\/span><\/p>\n If one or more panel members deem the sample unsuitable, they may initiative its exclusion. If necessary, the sample may be excluded by the unanimous decision of the panel members.<\/span><\/p>\n The points given by the judges are totalled by the technical secretariat using a computer programme, with the calculated average giving the final score for the wine. Any scores that vary by more than 5 points from the average in either direction (both positively and negatively) will not be counted.<\/span><\/p>\n V.

(In the case of fractions, the score is calculated by rounding).<\/span><\/p>\n Best of Country:<\/b> If there are at least ten samples from a foreign country, the gold medal with the highest score among these will receive a special award.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
