"Lifetime Achievement Wine Star Award" Angelo Gaja

the prestigious lifetime achievement award (unveiled as early as September) to a «pioneer of the quality revolution of Italian wine and guide to the next generation of its family winery which, with its commitment towards innovation, continues to inspire the world of wine today»

"European Winery of the Year" Ferrari

The Trentino’s label of bubbles of the Lunelli family received the recognition «Thanks to more than a century of experience – we read in the reasons for the award – Ferrari has been central in the affirmation of Italian sparkling wine in the world. For the Italian sparkling wine, this is a great time, and a host of manufacturers is launching in the production of sparkling wines, from the simplest ones, re–fermented in steel tanks, to the more ambitious ones, re–fermented in the bottle, but no brand was able to achieve the prestige of Ferrari».
