Public-vote wine and winery contests in Romania: what is on offer and how entries are ranked
Among the wine and winery contests in Romania, the checked pages name one: Povesti cu vinuri romanesti, organised by BASF Agricultural Solutions Romania, where fans of the company's Facebook page were able to vote for the most attractive wine label. In 2023 the Facebook community chose the most beautiful label of that contest, and in 2025 BASF invited wine fans to vote online for a Label of the Decade. The checked pages give no counting method, voting window or eligibility rule for either vote, so this page gives none.
Rechecked on 22 October 2026.
The Povesti cu vinuri romanesti contest: who ran it and when
BASF Agricultural Solutions Romania organised the contest the checked pages name. The checked text records a seventh edition in 2022, which means six earlier editions came before it, and it does not say when the first edition took place. The 2023 edition is recorded through the community vote on the most beautiful label. The organiser is a company, and the checked text names no other organiser for the contest.
The contest's name is Romanian, and this page keeps it as written. The label vote was held on the company's own Facebook page in 2022, and the 2023 account describes the Facebook community as the one choosing the winner. Those two descriptions point to the same platform, but the checked text does not say whether the page's fans and the community are the same audience.
The checked text names no jury, judge panel or independent body for the contest. A reader who asks who decides a result therefore gets the company's name and the words fans and community, and nothing beyond them. Where the decision rests with an audience, the organiser's own statement is the place to find how that decision was made.
- BASF Agricultural Solutions Romania organised the Povesti cu vinuri romanesti contest.
- The checked text records a seventh edition of the contest in 2022.
- The contest's Romanian name is kept as written on this page.
- The checked text names no jury, judge panel or independent body for it.
- The checked text names no organiser other than the company.
How the fan vote worked: a company's Facebook page as the place to vote
The checked pages describe the same basic mechanism in each year they name, but the wording changes. In 2022 fans of the company's Facebook page were able to vote for the most attractive wine label. In 2023 the Facebook community chose the most beautiful label. In 2025 the company asked wine fans to vote online on its Facebook page for the Label of the Decade. The 2022 and 2025 accounts name the company's page, and the 2023 account names only the community.
A vote held on a company's page is, in practice, tallied by the party that controls the page, and the checked text does not describe the tally for any of the three years. It does not say how many fans voted, whether the organiser published totals, or whether a fan can vote more than once. Those are the first points a reader would check before trusting a result, and the checked text leaves all of them open.
The checked text names no platform rule for a Facebook vote in Romania. A reader who wants the platform's position has to read the platform's own terms, which this page does not reproduce. Until those terms are read, a reader knows only what the company said about its own vote.
- Fans of the company's Facebook page were able to vote in 2022.
- In 2023 the Facebook community chose the most beautiful label.
- In 2025 the company asked wine fans to vote online for the Label of the Decade.
- The checked text describes no tally for any of these votes.
- Whether a fan can vote more than once is not stated in the checked text.
Named winners: a 2023 sunset wine and a 2025 Label of the Decade
The checked text names two winning labels and no winner for 2022. In 2023 the most beautiful label belonged to a sunset wine from Crama Moșia Domnească in Panciu. In 2025 the Label of the Decade went to a dry Fetească Regală from Crama Bratu, a 2022 vintage, after several hundred votes. Both named winners are identified by their winery, not only by the organiser.
The two results are reported in different words. The 2023 account says the label was chosen, while the 2025 account says it went to a winery after several hundred votes. The checked text gives no total, no runner-up and no margin for either year, so this page cannot say how close either result was. The phrase several hundred is the only measure of scale the checked text offers.
A reader who wants more about a winner should start with the winery's name, which the checked text does give, and then ask the organiser for vote totals in writing. The checked text does not say whether any totals were published, so that question stays open.
- The checked text names the 2023 winner as a sunset wine from Crama Moșia Domnească.
- The 2025 Label of the Decade went to a Fetească Regală from Crama Bratu.
- No winner for the 2022 edition is named in the checked text.
- The checked text gives no vote totals, runners-up or margins.
- Each named winner is identified by its winery, not only by the organiser.
What the checked text leaves open: dates, counts and eligibility
The checked text gives no voting window for any year. The 2025 invitation is described as online, which fixes a year but not a period, so a reader cannot tell when that vote opened or closed. The 2022 and 2023 accounts give no dates at all. This is the first gap a reader meets, and it is the gap the contest's own advert should close.
Eligibility is missing as well. The checked text does not say who may enter a label, whether a winery must be Romanian, or whether a vintage has to fall in a set year. The dry Fetească Regală from 2022 is a result, and one result does not make a rule. The page does not turn a single winner into a condition for entry.
Rules on the vote itself are missing too. The checked text names no written voting rules for either Facebook vote, and it gives no organiser statement on how entries were ranked or how a complaint is handled. Where the text is silent, this page leaves the gap open.
- The checked text gives no voting window for any year.
- The 2025 vote is described as online, with no start or end date.
- Eligibility for entering a label is not stated in the checked text.
- The checked text names no written voting rules for either Facebook vote.
- One winning label is a result, not a rule for later entries.
Reading a label vote as a reader: what to ask the organiser
The organiser the checked text names is BASF Agricultural Solutions Romania, and it is the party to ask. The questions worth putting to it follow from the gaps above: the voting window for each year, the eligibility rule for entering, the count method, and whether vote totals were published. Each of these is answered by the organiser, not by this page.
A second check is the winner's own statement. The checked text names each winning label with its winery, which gives a reader a name to contact before trusting a result. The checked text does not show whether any winery has confirmed its result, so this page makes no claim about that.
Platform terms are a third thing to read. The checked text does not include the terms that govern a promotion on Facebook, so this page does not say what the platform allows or forbids in a vote on a company page. A reader who needs that position has to read the platform's own terms, and any answer about a specific vote should come from the party that ran it.
- The organiser named in the checked text is BASF Agricultural Solutions Romania.
- Ask the organiser for the voting window, the count method and the eligibility rule.
- Ask whether vote totals for each year were published, and where.
- The checked text does not include the terms that govern a Facebook promotion.
- This page makes no claim about how any result was verified.
Rules that apply
The checked sources name one organiser for a Romanian wine contest: BASF Agricultural Solutions Romania, which ran the Povesti cu vinuri romanesti contest and also invited fans to a 2025 online vote for a Label of the Decade. They set no Romanian legal rule for a wine label vote, so this page takes no legal position on one. The sources were checked and this page was reviewed against them on 22 October 2026, and it carries no dates, totals or eligibility rules because none of the reviewed sources gives them.
What we decline
This page names one Romanian wine contest, because the checked pages name only one, and it gives no count, voting window or eligibility rule for it. It does not say whether a Facebook page vote is a lawful way to pick a winner, since the checked text gives no legal position. It does not describe how an organiser checks for fake votes, and it does not describe any way of adding votes to a page's count. The winners named here are results, and this page does not rank or predict any other entry.
Questions and answers
Among the wine and winery contests in Romania, the checked pages name one that used a public vote, Povesti cu vinuri romanesti, organised by BASF Agricultural Solutions Romania, where fans of the company's Facebook page were able to vote. The checked text names no second contest of this kind, so this page gives no list. A reader looking at another contest has to read its own advert and its own voting page, because the checked text says nothing about contests it does not name.
The checked pages name one organiser, BASF Agricultural Solutions Romania, which organised the Povesti cu vinuri romanesti contest and also ran a 2025 online vote for a Label of the Decade. The checked text names no jury, judge panel or independent body alongside it. For any other wine contest in Romania, the organiser has to be found in that contest's own advert, and this page does not name one.
The checked pages describe no count for any Romanian wine contest, so this page gives no counting method. They record that fans voted on a company's Facebook page and that a Facebook community chose one label, but no tally, total or method is given. A reader who wants the count should ask the organiser for it in writing and keep the answer, since the checked text supplies none.
The checked pages give no voting window for any Romanian wine contest, so no opening date is stated here. The 2025 vote is described as online and carries no start or end date, and the 2022 and 2023 accounts give no dates either. A reader should take the window from the contest's own advert. This page does not estimate one.
The checked text states no eligibility rule for a Romanian wine contest, so this page sets out none. It does not say who may enter a label, whether a winery must be Romanian, or whether a vintage must fall in a given year. The winners it names are results, not rules for later entries. Entry conditions have to be read from the promotion's own text.
The checked text describes no check against fake votes in any Romanian wine contest, so this page describes none. It names no organiser method, no moderation step and no platform setting that limits a vote. A reader who wants to know what an organiser does should ask for the method in writing, and should read how the vote was tallied and who can see the tally.
