BY TANYA DU PREEZ

Judges for the Clear Image Hunter Valley Wine Show are in for a treat as they sip their way through some of the finest wines in the Hunter.

Judging was held yesterday and continues today in 33 different classes of wine.

Over 600 entries from more than 70 winemakers are being considered by a panel of local, national and international experts.

Show presenter David Flynn says the competition is an important cultural event for the Hunter Region.

"We're celebrating a strong region, with a lot of history and a lot of quality wines," he said.

Trophies will be awarded on Friday at Crowne Plaza Hunter Valley Marquee.
