WELCOME

Welcome from the Committee

The 2017 Yarra Valley Wine Show was once again a success and one in which we

continued the push for improvement both in the preparation and execution of the

show. The Wine Show Committee works all year to collectively make ours one of the

best regional shows in the country. This quiet group of people volunteer their time and

experience out of respect for our wine community.

The big improvement in the running of this year’s show was adopting the AWRI judging

software ShowRunner. This software ensures smooth running of the judging process

with computer generated randomised call-backs and traceability from entry to judging

bench. As newly developed software the entry process wasn’t smooth for each and

every exhibitor however I know the rate of improvements will be massive as 21 other

wine shows adopt it over the next 12 months. The stewards back of house loved it. I am

particularly grateful to Francesca Blefari of the AWRI for the ongoing support through

the adoption, implementation and her presence during the judging process.

I am constantly humbled by the high calibre judges who travel from far and wide and

from all facets of the wine industry, volunteering their time to benefit our regional

wine show. There is great depth to the knowledge and experience in the room and it is

very much appreciated that these judges take the time out of their busy schedules to

contribute to the smooth running of our wine show.

During the judging week I was asked if I preferred stewarding or judging. The answer

was easy – JUDGING! Our show wouldn’t run at all without the swag of volunteers qui-

etly and swiftly clearing and pouring the wines to keep to the tight schedule. Many come

back year after year taking leave from their employment for the benefit of our region and

a glimpse at some wines at the end of a long day. I simply can’t thank you all enough.

This year we welcomed Elita Vezis as Chief Steward who calmly and professionally

steered the stewards to a successful show. Alongside Elita was Su Pettitt, the Show

Secretary who with the ShowRunner software knew what our judges were thinking

before they did. Su took to the new software like a fish to water and confidently

monitored the judging and record keeping without line of sight into the judging room.

These two respectfully work together to ensure the wine show runs smoothly and they

ensure complete transparency.

A final thank you to our Chair of Judges, Philip Rich, for taking ownership of the judging

process, the Judges and Associate Judges and steering them to some great results

in his final year. I would also like to welcome our incoming Chair of Judges; Chris

Crawford. It will be a smooth transition for Chris into this role having been involved for

the past three years as a valuable Panel Chair.

My love for this region, its amazing people and the wines they passionately craft

meant I couldn’t say no when asked to sit on this committee. I believe in the wine

show system, admire the generosity of those who get involved and I accept its foibles.

Regrettably I will be stepping down from my position as I can no longer afford the time

required to do it well but I will continue to advocate for improvement.

I can’t be at the trophy presentation lunch but congratulate those who are well rewarded

today. I wish you all the best, enjoy your neighbour’s and celebrate their successes.

Cheers

Sarah Crowe

FROM THE JUDGES

Judges Report

First let me say what a privilege it has been to be chair of judges of the Yarra Valley

Wine Show for the last three years. The Yarra is one of Australia and the world’s

great wine regions producing high quality wines across several varieties and styles

highlighted this year by the fact that Cabernet, Bordeaux blends and Shiraz produced

(for the first time) more 95 point wines than Chardonnay and Pinot Noir combined.

Entries were down slightly this year (353 compared to 367 in 2016) and while the gold

medal count was also slightly down, reflecting, overall that 2016 is perhaps not as good

as vintage, as those preceding it, nearly 60% of all entries received a score of 85 (a

bronze) or higher with 40% receiving 90 points (a silver or higher).

One of the highlights, as already touched upon, was the overall quality of the Cabernet

classes and Shiraz. In my three years as chair, there has never been more 95-point

wines in these classes. Both Yarra Cabernet and Shiraz is a very different beast to what

is produced elsewhere in Australia and it was great to see so many wines that combine

beautiful depth of fruit, deft winemaking whilst retaining the elegance and overall

balance that defines Yarra Cabernet, Cabernet blends and Shiraz.

That 60% of these 95-point wines came from the 2015 continued the theme of last

year’s show which is that 2015 is simply a great year across the board in the Yarra.

Another highlight was the other reds class which had a slight increase in entries and

while the wines in this class will never dethrone Pinot, Cabernet and Shiraz as the

region’s most planted red varieties, there is clearly a place for producers experimenting

with Portuguese and Spanish varieties, Pinot Meuniere and even blending Pinot and

Shiraz as one beautifully put together wine demonstrated.

As always, I would like to thank the stewards, fellow judges and the committee

for giving up their time to support making this, my last show, run as smoothly and

efficiently as it is and I look forward to seeing what the incoming chair, Chris Crawford,

and his team come up with next year!
