Submission Samples and Labelling

For each entry you will need to forward two 750ml bottles or two 375ml bottles for dessert wine with screw cap closure or volume equivalent for tasting. Wines with cork closures are unable to be identified as being corked therefore cork closures will not be accepted.

Wineries will receive submission codes via email confirmation and will be required to clearly label each wine with the respective submission codes to reflect the group and category for which they are being submitted. This process is detailed under the reference “Submissions”.

Please send your wine samples to the address listed below
