Skigaarden has Norway's best list with sparkling wine

Skigaarden in Hemsedal.

Skigaarden in Hemsedal won the category Beste Champagne/Musserende vinliste (Best Sparkling Wine List) when Star Wine List of the Year teamed up with the Norwegian Sommelier Association and Kapital magazine to celebrate the best wine lists of Norway on Sept. 25. The category was presented by Nyetimber.

Skigaarden also won the prestigious Norges Beste Vinkart/Grand Prix and was the only venue to win more than one category.

This was the third time Star Wine List was cooperating with Norges Beste Vinkart, with the Star Wine List Jury of international top sommeliers (Paz Levinson, Raimonds Tomsons and Salvatore Castano) judging three categories. For the first time, we also had the Sustainable Wine List category in Norway, and the first Norwegian winner was Credo.

The silver medalists in the sparkling category were:
RE-NAA
