WOW, Way To Go Allen!!! That's a great way to get you hooked on competitions!! I prefer the ribbons to fit the bottle. I do like it at Corrados when we put the ribbons around our necks but then when I get home I have a hell of a time wrapping them around my bottles. But I'll take them...

Thanks Dan, I am quite proud. I didn't expect to do as well as I did this year, but I'm not complaining. I know this is a tough competition so I'm quite pleased with our winners!!

Yeah I got mine too, very modern looking, not proper for a wine medal. Even the stickers you can purchase for your wine bottles are ugly as well. I'd also like to know how I can get a double gold medal for my Cabernet Franc Ice Wine here and nothing from the Jersey Competition!! John, I...

The best I did was a 15.83 (strange #) for a white blend. But I agree with you, why couldn't it be a 16.1 since they like strange #'s!! Sorry we didn't hook up. I felt a little strange asking everyone if they were John!!

My results were 6 Bronze and 2 Silvers. I'm looking forward to the judges notes on this one. Hard to believe out of 83 wines only 1 gold. John, how many wines did you enter? I saw earlier you entered 10 but you recieved 11 medals. Did you pay someone off, lol!! I got to the winery about...

I can see that neon chicken lying under your Christmas tree this year, now THAT would be funny!!!

After reading your posts about the fair I'm really glad they didn't answer my emails to enter my wines!!!

Yeah, I love Corrado's, what a great evening. I only found out about this one from a little blurb in Winemakers Magazine. I really thought they would get a better turnout though.

John, I have no idea what the medals look like, and from what I read they are going to mail us the medals with the judges notes after the event. Maybe they don't order the medals until they know how many they need! I also saw that they had 83 wines entered. I have 12 and you have 10 so 1/4of...

John, It looks like I will be able to make it to the vineyard on Saturday. See you then. Dave

John, Thanks for the info on Benito's,we'll have to check it out. I'll let you know by the end of the week if I can make it to the winery. If not have yourself a blast and best of luck (doubt you will need it though!). Dave

John, I brought my wine to Dan Kline today at his business. I was going to take it to the Beckers but Dan was closer from where I was. As far as going to the Winery it all depends how busy we are at work. I'd like to come with my wife but one of us needs to be at the nursery until 5 :m...

I'm bringing mine tomorrow. This is what I'm entering: 2009 German Muller Thurgau 2009 Viognier, Riesling, Chardonnay 2008 Vidal, Chenin Blanc, Muscat, Gerwurztraminer 2008 Riesling, Gerwurztraminer, Muscat 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon 2008 Merlot (New Zealand) 2009 Old Vines Mencia 2008...

I tried to enter this one but no one would send me a reply to my email. I didn't know where to find out any info on this one. Sounds like I'm glad I missed out!! How did you do?

WOW I got 13 medals for 14 wines entered, and my wife got 4 medals for 4 wines entered!! Here's mine: Double Gold Red Ice Wine White Chocolate Port Gold German Muller-Thurgau Brunello (Sangiovese) Silver Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot Pinot Noir Banana pineapple Viognier Bronze...

I don't remember what the Best Of Show was, I'm sure it's on their website. These are the medals I recieved: 2008 Gentil - Bronze 2008 Pacific Quartet - Silver 2008 Tannat Merlot - Silver 2008 Orange Chocolate Port - Gold 2006 Staggs Leap District Merlot - Double Gold

You got that right Richard!! Remember, he who dies with the most toys is nonetheless, DEAD!!!

Finally found a New Jersey Wine Competition: www.njwine.webs.com I'm gonna try this one as well, I'm hooked on these competitions!!

Sent mine out Tuesday and they should be there Thursday. Not to bad temperature wise this week here for them to travel, time will tell!

jeepbabe (got a 2007 Sahara myself!), This is a great wine kit, I made one in 2008 and it just got me a gold medal at Winemakers Competition. The hardest part for me was to not drink it all and save some for the future, good luck with that!! I think I'm down to 7 bottles :( got to make...
