Contestants are judged not only on accuracy but on their ability to make a case for their assumptions based on the characteristics of the wine. The Grand Prize Winner will receive dinner for 2 at a local restaurant, a rare bottle, and a free taste at Wine≤ per week until 2007! Runners up will receive wine accessories, bottles of wine, and t-shirts.

If you have never heard 80 sheets, Pinebox Serenade or Spitfire Tumbleweeds, do yourself a favor and come hang out in Denton and have a glass of wine with me. You will enjoy!

:( After 8 wine tastings I won't be able to drive back to Dallas to catch Romp Almighty at the Cavern or Salim and I Love Math at Dada.
