Alvi’s Drift Wins in Ultra Value Wine Challenge 2021 | Alvi's Drift

Written by Alvi's Drift | Oct 22, 2021

This is the seventh set of Ultra Value Wine Challenge results – The UVC competition identifies the very best wine buys that sell for under R130 per bottle.  This is the largest price point sector in SA wine. It puts consumers in first place by giving them a trusted list of high-quality, well-priced wines. They are currently available to buy right now, making the results both practical and useful.

The Ultra Value Wine Challenge attract huge support from quality producers and vineyards, who themselves have built enviable reputations, based on tip-top quality and affordable pricing.

The following results were awarded to us:

Signature Pinotage – Double Gold
Signature Sauvignon Blanc – Gold
Signature Pinotage Rose – Gold
221 Special Cuvee – Gold

The UVC Challenge also assesses and awards those top ranking vineyards that have proved to be consistently at the fore throughout the 7 years of this value-wine competitions history. At this stage and over the full seven year period, there are now five vineyards in leading positions with between 51 and 76 winning wines.

We are thrilled to receive once again a spot in the top 5 Vineyard Consistency Awards. Congratulations to the other wineries who also received this special award.

Alvis Drift Private Cellar – Second place
Accolade Wines SA – Third place
Robertson Winery – Fourth place
