This is an invitation to enter your wines in the 20th South Coast Wine Show. Entries for
commercial wines are accepted only from producers within the South Coast Zone (ie,
as defined by the Australian Wine and Brandy Corporation).

For some 19 years the Milton Show Society has hosted the South Coast Wine Show.
The SCWS has been the accredited wine show for the South Coast Zone, ie the South
Coast Zone, as described at https://www.wineaustralia.com/labelling/geographical-
indicators/labelling-gi-south-coast, which included
   •   the Shoalhaven Coast GI (region),
       https://www.wineaustralia.com/labelling/geographical-indicators/labelling-gi-
       shoalhaven-coast, and
   •   the Southern highlands GI (region),
       https://www.wineaustralia.com/labelling/geographical-indicators/labelling-gi-
       southern-highlands ,

The SCWS seeks to operate as consistently as possible within the 2015 Australian
Society of Viticulture and Oenology, (ASVO) guidelines to create public and industry
awareness and appreciation of the wines produced within the South Coast Zone.

Exhibiting wines provides an opportunity for growers and vignerons to learn and
contribute to the ongoing quest of improving the quality of wines produced in our Zone.
