El Grifo has been recognized twice at the Mundus Vini international competition. The Lanzarote winery has achieved a Gold Medal thanks to its Canari sweet wine and a Silver Medal for its Blanco Malvasía Volcánica Seco Colección 2019.
This international wine competition has a long history and importance, with more than 11,000 wines submitted each year. In it, a professional jury composed of oenologists, producers and wine distributors, sommeliers and specialized journalists from around the world taste the wines, sparkling wines and fortified wines without knowing their names. Their technical and professional knowledge of the sector has helped to establish this competition and make it known throughout the world.
The wines submitted are integrated into a tasting according to category, origin, quality level and type of flavor. The evaluation is carried out according to the 100-point system of the International Organization of Vine and Wine (OIV), which is also recognized by the International Union of Oenologists (UIOE).
This contest was founded in Germany; where Bodegas El Grifo is marketing its wines through its online store, www.elgrifo.com, and its distributor in the country itself.
From the Regulatory Council, "we want to congratulate you on these awards, which, without a doubt, are a source of motivation for the island's sector in a situation like the one we are experiencing and another step to achieve greater recognition of Lanzarote wines worldwide".
