Elite Traveler readers can enjoy an exclusive offer to attend World of Fine Wine’s 2025 World’s Best Wine Lists Awards.

Guests can still expect to sample exceptional wines throughout the evening, from partners including Laurent-Perrier, Lingua Franca, Moët Hennessy Wine Estates and Ca’del Bosco. If you have a treasured vintage at home, you are welcome to bring it along, as there is no corkage fee.

This year, for the first time, the awards will take place at a gala dinner at London’s Savoy / ©World of Fine Wine The awards are judged by a panel of the world’s most respected wine authorities, including masters of wine and a world sommelier champion. Categories include best long wine list, best organic wine list and best sake list (outside Japan).

Past winners underline the awards’ prestige. Gordon Ramsay’s Pétrus claimed best medium wine list in 2024, while Milan’s Affinatore took home best champagne and sparkling wine list.
