Sula Vineyards, India’s leading wine producer, is delighted to announce that its flagship RASA Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 has been awarded a prestigious Gold Medal at the Global Cabernet Sauvignon Masters 2024. This award marks the first time an Indian wine has received a gold medal at the Global Masters Awards in any category, heralding a significant milestone in the evolution of Indian winemaking on the global stage. The competition, organized by the UK-based Drinks Business magazine, employs a rigorous blind-tasting format judged by a panel of the most esteemed judges in the industry.
Rajeev Samant, Founder and CEO of Sula Vineyards, shared his deep pride in this landmark achievement, stating, “Receiving this gold medal for our flagship wine during Sula’s 25th anniversary year is deeply symbolic. It reaffirms our evolution from humble beginnings to an internationally recognized brand. This honor at the 2024 Global Cabernet Sauvignon Masters confirms that Sula is crafting world-class wines that excel on the global stage, further motivating us to continue innovating and excelling.”
The RASA Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 is crafted from the highest quality grapes and features a deep ruby color, with complex aromas of blackcurrant, cedar, and a hint of spice. The palate unfolds with layers of ripe fruit, seamless oak integration, and a velvety texture, culminating in a long, satisfying finish.
The RASA series, which includes the Gold Medal-winning RASA Cabernet Sauvignon, the RASA Syrah, and the RASA Zinfandel, represents the pinnacle of red winemaking in India. Each wine in this series is crafted with the utmost care and stands as a testament to the excellence and sophistication of Indian viticulture and wine making.
Proudly Indian, Sula Vineyards is dedicated to showcasing India’s potential as a world-class wine-producing nation. This recognition at the Global Cabernet Sauvignon Masters not only emphasizes the growing stature of Indian wines internationally but also underscores Sula’s commitment to producing wines that achieve global acclaim.
