Annual Winemaking Show and Competition 2026
Our annual Wineshow
is proposed to be held on
SATURDAY 29 August 2026
At BALNARRING COMMUNITY HALL
Frankston Flinders Road, Balnarring
10.30 am till 2.30 pm
(Details and entry forms to be published when available)
The annual wineshow is an opportunity for amateur winemakers to have their wines assessed by industry recognised wine judges and to learn from their comments how you can possibly improve your winemaking skills.
You can compare your wines to other artisanal winemakers and this is an opportunity for your friends, family and for the general public to taste the excellent home-made wines of the wineshow entrants.
Congratulations to the trophy winners in our 2025 wine show!
