Whether you�re a wine connoisseur or just like to dabble, the 2005 Sydney Good Food & Wine Show is for you. This year�s show sees approximately 100 beverage labels exhibiting - a 20% increase in wine and beverage exhibitors from last year.

The increase in producers means the 2005 Good Food & Wine Show will be the biggest exhibition of wine and beer brands under one roof in Sydney this year. All products will be available to sample at the producer�s individual stands and will be showcased together in the Wine and Beer Tasting Theatre. Visitors will be encouraged to take a tour of the �World of Wine & Beer� after purchasing a souvenir wine glass from the information point at the Show entrance.

Exhibiting are some of Australia�s most respected boutique and mainstream wine producers including Brown Brothers, De Bortoli, Devil�s Lair, Houghton, Scarborough Wine Co., Tulloch and Zilzie Wines with an especially strong contingent from WA. Brewers include brands such as James Squire, Carlton & United Beverages, Matilda Bay Brewing Company and Grand Ridge Brewery.
