Well, the old-timey recipe Moonshiner's Muscadine took a third this year in sweet muscadine category at the Lincoln County (TN) Fair. That's my second third-place ribbon in a row. We are clearly not on the same page, wine-wise.
I believe I am going to re-enter the two wines I entered at other, more professional contests, though.
Very disappointed my blueberry-muscadine (Blues Brothers) did not place, and they now have changed the rules for the OTHER category for 2014 to state that you cannot make wines entered as OTHER out of any of the ingredients used in any other judging category (i.e., my bb-muscadine would not have qualified for entry). I kind of think they may have disqualified my BB-Muscadine on that in advance this year. My third-place wine had a 3 on the top of the cork, and my bb-muscadine had a 2 on top. Hmmm...
There are no judge's comments in this contest, either, so I need to try some others.
