It is with great pleasure to announce that Rosendal Winery Wellness Retreat\u2019s wine delivered yet again at the 17th Michelangelo International Wine Awards 2013!<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Michelangelo competition offers value to their entrants,\u201d said Lorraine Immelman, founder and owner of the Awards, adding that \u201cit provides a platform for local wines to be judged by a panel of international judges on local soil, and to compete against entries from other countries.\u201d This year\u2019s international entries were received from Chile, Italy, New Zealand, France, Argentina and Canada.<\/p>\n

Since the competition\u2019s inception in 1997 more than 160 international wine experts from 37 countries have served on the judging panel, which is why this competition is unique in South Africa \u2013 judges are unbiased, professional experts with international experience in wine adjudication. This year a panel of 16 wine and brandy specialists from 15 countries judged the entries from the 12th to 17th of August at Romond Vineyards in Somerset West.<\/p>\n

In accordance with the rules of the Michelangelo International Awards only 30% of entries may be awarded a medal which adds to the prestige of a wine bearing a Michelangelo Medal. The 2013 results were announced at a glittering gala luncheon on Friday, 6 September, where Rosendal\u2019s Barony August Cabernet Sauvignon 2011 won a Gran D \u2018Or Medal and a Gold was awarded to the Rosendal Hilltop Merlot 2011.<\/p>\n

On receiving the great news, Rosendal\u2019s acclaimed and multiple award-winning winemaker, Therese de Beer, commented that she is \u201cextremely proud of both of these wines! The Michelangelo International Wine Awards is one of the leading competitions in the country, so this is a great feather in our cap! This just shows again that Rosendal\u2019s wines are of superior quality!\u201d<\/p>\n

Geir Tellefsen, owner of Rosendal Winery Wellness Retreat, said that \u201cIt is a great honour to receive these awards and I would like to thank our amazing team for all your hard work. Therese you are a star! Rosendal Winery\u2019s approach to producing quality rather than quantity has proved once again that we\u2019re on top of our game and we are looking forward to share these stunning wines with the rest of South Africa.\u201d<\/p>\n
