 Tips on showing wines and beer.

  Read the schedule carefully, contact the show secretary if in any doubt.

  Make sure the bottles conform to schedule, are clean and without smears.

  Labels to be affixed as per schedule, use a measure if need be.

  If you are not sure of which class a wine should go into, again dont be afraid to ask and get a second opinion, any experienced wine exibitor will only be too pleased to assist.

  Marks are awarded for Presentation, Clarity, Colour, Bouquet, the general taste and  overall impression.
