The Gilbert & Gaillard International Challenge
The Gilbert & Gaillard International Challenge: An international wine competition showcasing terroir products and expertise
The Gilbert & Gaillard International Challenge is not a French competition but an international wine competition recognized by producers, importers, and distributors worldwide. Present across all key industry regions, we work to promote quality wines and spirits through a global distribution network that far exceeds European borders. Our tastings are conducted by a committee of experts throughout the year, ensuring flexibility and responsiveness for producers. The Gilbert & Gaillard International Challenge is open to all types of producers, merchants, distributors, and importers, with no restrictions on formats, vintages, or products submitted.
Gilbert & Gaillard Medals: Valuable awards
Our mission is to highlight quality products through a rigorous scoring system based on an international 100-point scale. Products scoring 83 points or more are awarded a medal, which can then be displayed on their bottles to showcase their expertise to importers, distributors, and end customers.
