The trade-only judging panel gathers together the foremost international experts. It represents almost 40 nationalities and this diversity contributes to the uniqueness of the event. This is an opportunity to let them voice their thoughts and share their impressions on a changing industry. John Salvi brings over thirty years experience of wine tasting and writing to his monthly Bordeaux Weather Report which he writes from his house in the Médoc. He is a member of the exclusive circle of Masters of Wine. He is also a regular taster at CMB. "One of the problems with competitions is that there are so many of them but there are very few with the volume and strike of this particular competition. The Concours Mondial is now one of the biggest in the world and therefore has a reputation that is worldwide. To win a medal means that the public will take notice of the wine and I am absolutely certain that a gold medal in this competition will mean sales for the producer."
