OIV (The International Organization of Vine and Wine) organised a photo contest in connection with its centenary (see separate news item), called The OIV Centenary Photo Contest Pau Roca. The competition is named after the organisation’s former director general, the Spaniard Pau Roca.

The theme of the competition was “viticulture and wine production facing climate change”. Four photographers were given awards at the OIV photo contest: Kristian Kielmayer (Hungary), Michel Joly (France), Christophe Der (France) and … BKWine’s Per Karlsson (Sweden and France). We are very proud of this prize and of the appreciation for our photography. More on this later when we have more to report from the awards ceremony itself.

Swedish. Per is co-founder together with his wife Britt of BKWine. Rumour has it that his interest in wine started already when he was 11. Just like Britt he visits some 200 wineries each year on wine tours and for journalistic research. He writes about wine primarily online on BKWine Magazine and in the BKWine Brief. Per is also a professional photographer, specialising in wine and travel photography. See BKWine Photography for more on this. Since a few years back he has also branched out into video production on the same subject. He has contributed all images, and some text, to BKWine’s wine books.
