Boy, I wish I was making wine in 2005. I would of loved to trythat Petite Sirah/Zinfandel.


I have a question. Are most wines that are entered into copettioin like this one kit wines? Do you have to say its a kit wine, or is that not asked?

I know the large home wine maker competitions like the "Winemaker International Wine Competition" you have to say it is a wine kit with all the details. The kit wines compete against wine made from fresh grapes in the same category which is categorized by grape varietal.
