Media release – Hobart Wine Show, 5 August 2024
Entries open in 2024 Royal Hobart Wine Show
Entries have opened in the 2024 Snap Printing Royal Hobart Wine Show, one of Australia’s foremost wine shows.
A 10% early bird entry discount has been introduced this year to encourage earlier entries. The early bird entries will last until August 26.
In order to make the show more accessible to a wider range of producers, the minimum volume requirements for all entries have also been reduced this year. This will make the Show easier to enter for smaller producers.
There are 43 classes of wine to be judged this year as well as three classes of No to Low Alcohol grape products, and two classes of brandy.
The annual Richard Langdon Trophy for Vineyard of the Year will be awarded to a single vineyard that shows a high level of innovative and sustainable viticultural management practices leading to the production of quality fruit.
The winner of this award will be selected from eligible single vineyards that have entered this special class. The winner will host an industry field day organised by the Royal Agricultural Society of Tasmania to further promote their wine and vineyard to the public and the wine sector.
Entries will close on September 23, with judging over four days 11-14 November. The event has attracted strong commercial support with more than 20 major and minor sponsors this year.
