Our university was awarded, on February 28, 2024, with the gold medal in Spain, in Vitoria-Gasteiz, for the Sauvignon Blanc Aurum Terras 2023, respectively with the silver medals for Muscat Ottonel Aurum Terras 2023 and Sauvignon Blanc Aurum Terras 2022! All are produced at the Vinea Apoldia Maior winery and we thus congratulate our colleagues!

The first gold medal at international level was won by our university also at the Catavinum World Wine & Spirits Competition, in 2023, for the Sauvignon Blanc label of 2022.
