Congratulations Dan Smothergill!

A 2013 Iona / Chardonnay Blend sounds like a pretty interesting blend! Good job Dan!
(What were the percentages?)

Congrats, Dan! Was this for the AWS Competition?

Thank you guys. I don't know I missed this. Yes it was the AWS competition. The wine was about 85% Iona and the rest Chardonnay. I got the idea from a commercial wine maker, the only one I know who makes Iona. He says it often takes a long time to mellow. If you can't wait (that's me) he suggests blending it with something to take the edge off. I've also found that 10% - 15% Chardonnay can do wonders for Muscat Ottonel.

Congrats, Dan!

A belated thank you Robin. I've been a member of AWS forever but this my first time entering its competition.
