At the recent Chardonnay du Monde Competition held in France, competing against 1 226 other Chardonnays, 7 Robertson Chardonnays were awarded gold and silver medals.

This is remarkable as only 369 wines were awarded with any medals whatsoever.

Regarded as the top Chardonnay competition in the world, Chardonnay du Monde attracts entries from the best Chardonnay producers world-wide and it is no suprise that South Africa's foremost Chardonnay region gets recognition to such an extent.
