The Riverina Winemakers Association held their 2018 wine shows earlier in September to find the best of the best of the Riverina’s wines.
Almost 1000 wines comprising different varieties including reds, whites, and dessert wines were entered.
Among the wine shows this year were the Open Show, Riverina Region Wine Show, Sweet Wine Challenge, Hilltops Wine Show, Tumbarumba Wine Show, and the Australian Italian Varieties Wine Awards.
Chief Winemaker for Nugen Estate Daren Owers said it was a fantastic night.
“Shows and award nights like these definitely puts us on the map, and in a sense it does spotlight the excellent wine we produce in the region,” Mr Owers said.
“I would like to thank the Wine Show Committee especially Russel Cody and Carrah Lymer who have done a fantastic job running the show.
“It really give a boost to the area. People had a great time. Happy to be a part of that.”
