About Us
Welcome to the ASWS
The Australian Small Winemakers Show (ASWS) is held in Stanthorpe, arguably Queensland’s most respected wine producing region.
It was originally established in 1987 by the wine sub-committee of the Stanthorpe Agricultural Society and has grown to be the most prestigious wine show for small winemakers in Australia and New Zealand and one of the fastest growing shows on the annual wine circuit.
The show is run by a dedicated group of volunteers from all walks of life. They are all interested in promoting Australian Small Wine Producers and the appreciation of Australian wines.
