Lignes directrices de l’évaluateur ASI

The ASI is pleased to provide you, our members, the ASI Evaluator Guidelines, which are the continuation of the Sommelier guidelines and shall support judges to evaluate the performance of the sommelier.

The creation of this reference work was truly a monk’s work. It was made possible by the tremendously fruitful cooperation of many of our members from all around the world. They contributed for over two years to make this a real masterpiece. This is what makes it so special, as we have taken into account all the different cultures and customs that our ASI association embraces.



This is a living document, it will be updated every year, please feel free to send your comments to our ASI Liaison Officer, Tim Vollerslev (timvollerslev@asi.info). He will collect all comments, process them and then present them to the parties concerned. This way, we will keep our finger on the pulse so that we are always well up to date.

As you will notice there is an ASI watermark embedded into these documents.  These documents are the property of ASI and intended exclusively as a benefit for our member countries exclusively. To our presidents, feel free to share it withyour judges, but please refrain from sharing it with contestants or the public.

We, the ASI Board, would like to take this opportunity to thank all our volunteers for their contribution and their enthusiastic efforts, which have contributed to the realization of this unique work.
