Wine show’s top, cool judges

Two of Australia’s three female Masters of Wine will be judging at the International Cool Climate Wine Show on the Mornington Peninsula. Kate McIntyre and Meg Brodtmann will be on the 16-strong judging panel, chaired by Mike DeGaris. An annual event since 2000, the popular wine show promotes the grape varieties and wine styles of cool climate regions by featuring judging, a public tasting, lunch and a dinner. The wine show attracts well over 600 entries from the cool climate regions of Australia and New Zealand, reports Peninsula Weekly.
