The Gold Star for Best Beaujolais Wine List has been presented to PM & Vänner at the Star Wine List of the Year Awards Sweden 2025.

On 7 April, PM & Vänner took home four Gold Stars at our Swedish awards event, hosted in Stockholm. Adding to their wins for Best Austrian Wine List, Best Long List and Grand Prix (the highest award of the competition overall), the team was presented with the Gold Star for Best Beaujolais Wine List by the category's sponsor, Inter Beaujolais.

“Without a doubt, this list stood out as the best for Beaujolais wines,” says jury member Salvatore Castano. “I have rarely, if ever, seen such an extensive and impressive selection from this region on a single list.”

Categories and criteria

Star Wine List judges the wine lists in several categories such as the Best Sparkling Wine List and Best By the Glass List. These categories are the same across all of the awards. In addition, local categories may be added. We have commercial partners for certain categories, such as the Best Austrian Wine List, presented by Austrian Wine. The commercial partners are, however, never involved in the selections of finalists or winners — that is completely up to our independent jury panel.

The criteria for the jury are straightforward but not simple: vote for the most exciting wine list representing the category.

The winners in the international categories will qualify for our International Final in June 2025, where they will face off with the category winners from other countries and continents.
