WMT (Unofficial) Welch's Wine Competition

I received a shipping tube about 15 minutes ago.

Tube? I am guessing that is mine. Was supposed to be there today. Remember, drink mine toward the end of your drinking and it will taste awesome.

Yes it was yours.....it's prominently displayed in fhe center of the kitchen table.

The problem with being judged later in the contest is accurate scorecards...

 

[Jericurl]

I actually laughed out loud with that last picture.

Ok everyone, I think we got the labels printed today.
I'm hoping to have this in the mail in the morning, if not, then Monday for sure.
Is it better to do this USPS or UPS?

 

[calvin]

You can't ship liquids via USPS

 

[Jericurl]

Well, that settled that!

 

[sour_grapes]

More to the point, it is a federal offense (literally) to ship alcohol via USPS. To ship via UPS, you are supposed to be an "approved customer" who is licensed, but it is not (to my knowledge) a crime.

Well, itis with great regret that after drinking a bottle of my entry I must withdraw. While my entry might be good in 6 months it is far too green to subject anyone other than myself to it. Ihad hoped it would have aged enough to meet my satisfaction but alas it has not. So I officially bow out with great regret and sorrow.

Oh come on! I'm sure the judges expect green, it was a short time frame.

Jeri URL claims hers is awful, but is sending it in anyway.

Lonestarlori claims judges are gonna spit hers out and says, quote "I'm still in. It may be *****, but I'm in."

Even though mine ain't pretty, I got talked back into sending it in, and YOU were a supporter: and I quote "Oh, send it. I'll bet there is some cloudiness in a bunch of ours.". I'd be willing to bet there is a fair amount of green in a bunch of ours... quote that.

I received two packages yesterday. Looks like Lori's and DJ's.

You do have a point.

 

[Jericurl]

Yep.

I'm not humblebragging. It's not good wine.

I do think that with some age on it it would be ok, but I know some adjustments need to be made to it.
I'm just not experienced enough to know exactly what the adjustments should be. I'm looking forward to the feedback.

 

[ffemt128]

Still waiting on Lori's.

 

[jojabri]

Sent mine out today. They didn't give me any flack or ask any questions at all. Of course we know all the ppl at office depot because we do all our printing there. I just got on their computer terminal, filled out info for my "steak marinade" and voila.

 

[GreginND]

Sorry. I never did get around to making anything for the contest. So you'll have one less to suffer through.


Sent from my iPad using Wine Making

Judging from tracking information I should be receiving Lori's wine today....

 

[dangerdave]

Mine is finally on the way. Sent them out Friday. I got caught up in some family business this past week, and will be out of contact for the rest of this week. Keep the wine flowing, and I'll check in when I'm back on Saturday.

Stay cool, everyone!

 

[ffemt128]

Lori's wine was delivered at 1:31pm according to tracking. Should be there when I get home in an hour....

 

[ffemt128]

Who's was the Mango? Received Lori's and another today. This sounds really interesting.
