In This Issue:

The winemaking season is about to get underway, and just in time we have two articles on blending; in the first, Gord Barnes describes a aboratory approach which can be used in one’s own cellar to identify the optimum blending ratios of two wines. Later in the issue Tom Ostler joins us to describe an actual blending of muscats, an approach that garnered medals in both club and provincial judging. And speaking of judging, John Starr writes from Wolfville, NS, to comment (favourably) on the approach to judging that we described earlier in these pages (issue no. 12) Good to hear from our friends down east!

We also include a summary of the medal winners from AWO ‘99, Chief Judge Peter Pigeon’s column, and a photograph by Gord to bring back the memories of our last Festival. This is rounded out by news on AWO 2000 which is being actively worked on as we speak. Salut!
