2010 Dan Murphys National Wine Show of Australia TM


DAN MURPHYS NATIONAL WINE SHOW OF AUSTRALIA
The Dan Murphys National Wine Show of Australia is Australias premier national show for
wine and brandy. The Show accepts entries from across Australia in premium, commercial and
aged classes for table, sparkling and fortified wines, and brandy.
The purpose of the Show is to judge and promote the best of the best Australian wines. Wines
must qualify through Australian regional and capital city wine shows to enter the premium,
premium gold and single vineyard classes. Entries in the premium and single vineyard classes
must be gold, silver or bronze award winning wines. Entries in the premium gold classes must be
gold award winning wines. These restrictions ensure that in these classes, entries include only
the best of the best Australian wines. In keeping with this purpose, wines from New Zealand are
no longer eligible to enter the Show.
Entries in the aged and commercial classes do not require a qualifying medal. Wines must be
at least 5 years old to qualify for the aged classes. The commercial classes require a minimum
volume of 2,000 dozen bottles (small volume) or 60,000 litres (large volume).
The Show requires exhibitors to have a minimum quantity of the wines they enter to ensure
that the wines are commercially made and as much as possible, that the wines entered are
available in commercial quantities. This year, the Show has introduced new volume requirements to
encourage small and medium-size wine producers to enter.
Australia has a long history of producing wines blended from different varieties and some of our
best wines are blends. New premium classes for blended table wines (classes 11, 25 and 26)
have been introduced to encourage these styles of wines.
A section for single vineyard wines (classes 31 - 38) highlights the growing importance in
Australia of region and terroir in premium wines. To be eligible, a wine must be made from fruit
sourced entirely from a single vineyard named on the commercial label.
Many wines show their best when they reach maturity after cellaring. The classes for aged wines
(classes 39 - 42, 58, 59 and 67 - 72) encourage exhibitors to make and show mature wines (5
years and older).
JUDGES
Wine show judges are often trained winemakers or work in the wine industry and spend many
years training to judge wines. The Shows judges are carefully selected from the best judges on
the Australian wine show circuit. Their expertise is complemented by international judges, providing a broader, international perspective to the Show.
The current Chair of Judges, Tom Carson, brings a wealth of experience to the Show as a
distinguished winemaker and judge.
JUDGING EXHIBITS
Wines are assessed by four panels of three judges. Classes of wines are allocated to each panel
to judge over three days. The panel assesses each wine independently of other wines in the
class. Each judge has access only to a glass of each wine, poured by a steward. The number of
wines judged each day is restricted to allow adequate time to assess each wine.
- 12 -

2010 Dan Murphys National Wine Show of Australia TM


Each wine is scored out of 20 points according to the following criteria:
Colour and condition
Bouquet
Palate

3 points
7 points
10 points

The chair of the judging panel tallies the points for each wine after all the wines in a class have
been judged. The judges may discuss the merits of particular wines before a final assessment of
each wine is made. A medal will be awarded to a wine according to the aggregate score of the
judging panel (out of 60) as follows:
Gold medal
Silver medal
Bronze medal

55.5 points or higher


51 - 55 points
46.5 - 50.5 points

Each wine is judged on its merits with no limit on the number of gold, silver or bronze medals that
may be awarded in a class. If more than one gold medal is awarded in a class, the judging panel
awards a top gold for the class. The judging panel may decide to make no awards in a class.
AUDIT PROCEDURE
To ensure the integrity and quality of exhibits, the Wine Show Committee selects one or more
regions from which entries have been received to be audited. An auditor appointed by the
RNCAS may inspect the records of each wine entered from the selected regions. The auditor then
determines that at the time of entry the wine complied with the conditions of entry for the class
entered, including qualifying awards, volume and that the wine was commercially bottled. The
auditor may take at least one sample bottle for comparison with the exhibit at the time of judging.
When an audited wine is judged, each judge is given a glass of the wine from the sample bottle
taken from the exhibitors stock to confirm that the wine entered is the same as the sample wine.
If the judges agree that the wines are not the same, the wine is disqualified.
TROPHIES
Open trophies are awarded to the best wines in Premium and Commercial classes after a
judge-off of the top gold awards from eligible classes. The top wine in a class must be of gold
medal standard to be eligible for a trophy. Contested trophies are decided by a ballot of all judges,
including the chair of judges. The open trophies include the Best Dry Red and Best Dry White
Wines of the Show, and the Len Evans Memorial Trophy for the Best Table Wine of the Show.
Wines in Class 12 (Medium or Sweet White) and Class 13 (Ros) are not eligible for Open
Trophies, but the top gold award in each of these classes automatically receives the trophy for
that style.
Wines in Single Vineyard, Aged, Sparkling and Fortified classes do not compete against the
Premium and Commercial classes for trophies, but compete for the trophy in their respective
sections (eg The Single Vineyard Trophy and Best Table Wine, Aged Classes).
Special trophies are awarded to the top wine in each Premium Gold class; The Semillon Trophy,
The Chardonnay Trophy, The Shiraz Trophy and The Cabernet Sauvignon Trophy.

Comment: Two excellent examples of dry modern Rose. As Roses these are very good wines
and there was much debate about the overall standard required for gold medal wines. There were
a lot of wines with excessive sugar.

Comment: Young, fresh and vibrant wines seduced the judges where the oak handling was not
excessive. This was not always the case. Heavy handed winemakers clouded the expression of
many wines that had delicate floral fruit to offer. Less oak please.

Comment: Overall a good solid class of wines. The top wines exhibited balance, texture and
flavour, without sacrificing concentration. But it also highlighted how difficult Cabernet can be
to get right, due to heavy handed oak/tannin/acidification, unbalancing the finish of the wines.

Comment: Our English judge came to life in this class and enjoyed the class very much.
Tim Wildman: An impressive line up of premium Australian Cabernets - overall a restrained use
of new oak and moderate alcohol welcome to see. A number of the wines showed great class in
a global context.

Comment: As a commercial class there were many lacklustre, hard phenolic wines. Where sugar
was the focus it was often too much for the quality of fruit. As the medals show, producers either
got it right or horribly wrong.
