Winning a medal at an international wine competition is already an important endorsement of quality, but receiving two gold medals at independent, highly prestigious competitions in the same year is particularly significant<\/strong>. Both competitions bring together thousands of wines from around the world each year, assessed by panels of international experts, sommeliers, specialist journalists and wine professionals. <\/p>\n\n Held in Germany, Mundus Vini<\/strong> is one of the world\u2019s most influential international wine competitions. Every year, more than 12,000 wines from dozens of countries are assessed through blind tastings by international judging panels. Its aim is to identify and reward wines that stand out for their quality, typicity and balance. <\/p>\n\n The Berliner Wein Trophy<\/strong> is another of the most prestigious competitions on the international wine scene. Held under the patronage of the International Organisation of Vine and Wine (OIV), the competition follows a rigorous tasting and assessment system designed to ensure objective results. Each edition brings together an international panel of judges to evaluate thousands of wines from wine-producing regions across the world. <\/p>\n\n In such a highly competitive environment, winning two gold medals for Conde Valdemar Crianza 2021<\/strong> reflects not only the quality of the wine itself, but also the consistency of the work carried out both in the vineyard and at the winery.<\/p>\n\n Conde Valdemar Crianza is one of the winery\u2019s most representative wines and embodies the style that has defined Bodegas Valdemar for generations: balance, elegance and respect for Rioja\u2019s identity.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Made primarily from Tempranillo<\/strong>, Rioja\u2019s flagship grape variety, this Crianza combines fruit and freshness with the complexity gained through oak ageing. On the nose, it reveals aromas of ripe red fruit alongside spicy notes and subtle toasted nuances. The palate is rounded and balanced, with soft tannins and a persistent finish that invites you to keep enjoying every sip. <\/p>\n\n The 2021 <\/strong>vintage has also shown excellent potential, producing wines with good concentration, freshness and a remarkable harmony between fruit and structure \u2014 characteristics that proved key in winning over the judges at both competitions.<\/p>\n\n These two gold medals are a recognition of the work carried out by the entire Bodegas Valdemar team, from caring for the vineyards through to the winemaking and ageing processes.<\/p>\n\n For more than five generations, the Mart\u00ednez Bujanda family has remained committed to producing wines that faithfully reflect the character of Rioja, combining tradition and expertise with a constant pursuit of quality.<\/p>\n\n The awards received by Conde Valdemar Crianza 2021<\/strong> at Mundus Vini and the Berliner Wein Trophy confirm that this dedication continues to bear fruit and that our wines continue to stand out on the most demanding international stages.<\/p>\n\n![\"Conde](\"https:\/\/valdemarfamily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Img666-copia-1024x683.jpg\")
