The entries were assessed by the Panel of judges from six countries [Australia, New Zealand, England, Singapore, Northern Ireland and USA] which included six Masters of Wine and eight other equally highly qualified judges, under the Chairmanship of Chief Judge Kym Milne MW, during the week ending 23rd October 2009.
