Wine Show wraps up for another year
The Labelmakers Perth Hills Wine Show is over for another year.
There were 74 entries from 13 exhibitors which was a fantastic achievement given that the event itself was in doubt up until recently due to the effects of the COVID19 pandemic.
Chief Judge, Mark Warren from Happs and Marq Wines along with Josephine Perry from Dormilona Wines, Troy Overstone from Sandalford and Associate Judge Jordan Kuchel spent many hours deliberating over the entries and we had some fantastic results. A big thank you also to our “unofficial” chief steward, Freya Hohnen who kept the judges on track, deciphered their handwriting and brought a ray of sunshine to the day.
8 Gold medals
14 Silver medals
28 Bronze medals
Thanks goes out to all of our sponsors and supporters, along with some other mentions…

The Soapbox Company made the boxes which were presented to our sponsors to thank them for their support (containing their winner’s wine of course!)
