Sababay Wines has again won honors at the 2015 China Wine and Spirits Awards (CSWA) recently held in Hong Kong.
Sababay’s White Velvet (White Wine) and Moscato d’Bali (Sparkling Sweet White Wine) were awarded Silver Medals, while Ludisia (Sweet Red Wine) garnered a Bronze Medal.
The heavyweight blind tasting by a panel of wine experts resulted in Sababay Winery competing alongside famous brands, including Scotland’s Haig Club; Australia’s Wolf Blass and Peter Lehmann; Chile’s Vina Ventisquero and Aguirre; France’s Bernard Magrez and Les Grand Chais de France; Italy’s Feundo Arancio and Cantine San Marzano; New Zealand’s Saint Clair and Marisco; Portugal’s Casa Santos Lima and DFJ Vinhos; South Africa’s Distell and La Motte Wine Estate; China’s Chateau Nine Peaks and Spain’s Williams and Humbert, and Rioja Vega.
The Annual CSWA focuses on the fastest growing wine market in the world: China. With 37 million adults poised to attain drinking age within the next five years (more than the entire population of Canada), experts say that sales in the Chinese marlet segment alone could skyrocket by as much as 200%.
Commenting on the medals won by Sababay in Hong Kong, Yohan Handoyo, deputy CEO of the Bali-based winery said: ‘We are extremely proud of our recognition at CWSA 2015. The most renowned brands in the world compete and it is an honor to see that our wines compare with the best in the industry. A CWSA Medal is a trusted badge of honor. We have always been committed to quality, but this further bolsters our desire to craft the best products possible.’
