95, 96 and 97/100. These are the points a wine must achieve to be awarded with the DoctorWine Seal. Further than that, double-seal (98/100) and triple-seal (99 and 100/100) are triggered. On Tuesday 16, we began publishing individual veneers by region, each wine preceded by its score, starting with the highest. For the double and triple Seals, which represent the top of this year’s production, we ask for your patience. You will find them all published together on Monday, September 29.
Following today are the 2026 Seals of South Tyrol and Trentino.
This was followed by the single Seals (up to 97/100) that we gave in Alto Adige and Trentino. Many you may have already seen posted on social media by individual producers, rightly proud to post their achievements on the The Essential Guide to Italian Wines 2026.
