WHAT'S NEW IN 2011
Entry Fees
To cover the increased costs associated with the Wine Show entry fees have
had to be increased to $55 and $110 (inc GST) for members and non-members
respectively. The effective ‘double’ differential between entry fees has been
maintained to advance the benefits of being a member of the Association.
Class 23
Changed from Whites other than Chardonnay to Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon
and Blends Of.
AGAIN IN 2011
Entries by Principal Brand Name
In order to better clarify the position with companies owning one or more wine
brands all wines entered MUST be exhibited under the principal brand name
and NOT under the parent company name; in essence the entry should reflect
the label.
National Wine Show of Australia
All 2011 Gold Medal winners will be invited to enter the 2012 National Wine Show
of Australia. The NWSA only invites entries from across Australia in premium,
commercial and aged classes for table, sparkling wines from qualifying wine
shows such as Margaret River.
Single Vineyard Estate Classes and Awards
Exhibits eligible for the Single Vineyard Trophy must contain a minimum of 95%
of wine produced from a single named vineyard, the name of which appears on
the commercial label of the wine. The named vineyard must be a single block,
continuous and defined to the satisfaction of the Margaret River Wine Industry
Association.
Sugar Levels
Sugar levels are now requested for ALL entries. Exhibitors are required to
indicate whether the wine is above 7.5gm/l, between 5.0gm/l and 7.5gm/l,
between 2.5gm/l and 5.0gm/l or below 2.5gm/l.
