Scoop the Spectator and Win a Kindle Fire
We're a little over a week away from Wine Spectator unveiling their 2011 Wine of the Year. As we have the past couple years, we're running a contest to see who can guess the top wine ahead of time. This year we're playing for a Kindle Fire ($199 value!) sponsored by New York wine retailer Grapes the Wine Company. Here are the Rules:
- Submit your guess as a comment on this blog post.
- One guess per person.
- The first person to guess a specific wine "owns" that wine as their entry. Subsequent guesses of the same wine aren't useful so look at the previous comments before submitting your entry.
- If nobody guesses the 2011 Wine Spectator Wine of Year, the guess with the highest position on the list will win the prize.
- Not that they'd try, but Wine Spectator editors aren't allowed to enter. And if you have inside information please don't spoil the fun for others by entering. But if you do know please E-mail me and let me know. ;)
- Since the Kindle Fire is US-only at this point, a winning entry from outside the U.S. will receive a $199 Amazon.com gift card.
- Quality (represented by score)
- Value (reflected by release price)
- Availability (measured by cases made or imported)
- An X-factor we call excitement.
But no equation determines the final selections: These choices reflect our editors? judgment and passion about the wines we tasted.
