Comissão de Viticultura da Região dos Vinhos Verdes (CVRVV) is proud to announce that out of the 26 wines submitted, the region earned 15 TEXSOM awards; 2 Gold, 5 Silver, and 8 Bronze Medals. Below, please find a detailed list of the wines that received these awards.

The TEXSOM Awards accepted over 2,356 entries and were judged by 42 top industry members. Of the entries judged, the judges awarded 1,677 medals: 19 Judges’ Selection medals, 76 Platinum medals, 233 Gold medals, 676 Silver medals, and 673 Bronze medals.

The Vinho Verde region consists of 9 sub-regions, on over 17,000 HA of vineyards. The region is the largest in Portugal by total area, with 96,372 million liters produced in 2022 and more than 100 export markets. These wines are created with a modern and sustainable winemaking process that has adapted to the changing climate and world.

Vinho Verde’s dedication to sustainability and production is shown in two styles. One style showcases a classic profile; young, light, fresh and with low alcohol. The other holds a more structured profile, revealing more body, complexity, aromatic intensity, and persistence. Vinho Verde lies slightly above sea level, with the Atlantic Ocean to the West and mountain ranges on the East and South, creating more Mediterranean characteristics.
