Welcome to the 2012 OC Fair Homewine Competition.  Attached is the current information for entering your wines this year. 

The Orange County Wine Society, in conjunction with the OC Fair, is proud to sponsor the 36th

OC Fair Homewine Competition.  This will be held on Saturday, June 9, 2012 at the OC Fairgrounds in Costa Mesa.  All amateur winemakers in California are invited to submit their wines for judging. 

Wine Entries are to be submitted On-Line for the  first time this year.  This will allow you to submit your wines more quickly, calculate fees, make changes up until the deadline, enter the Wine Label Competition and minimize errors all at the same time.  There are instructions and a tutorial video that will guide you through the process.  We suggest that you take advantage of them before you begin entering.  You may go to our web page at ocws.org , then to "What's New"and then click on "Homewine Competition Wine Entry" to begin.  There is also a link on the home page next to the photo of some of the Competition Volunteers. 

DEADLINE: Last day for entries is May 19,2012.  All wines should be either dropped off at designated locations or shipped direct by that date.
