It looks to be, by reading the press release, that about 50 percent of the wines won awards.

At the risk of being excoriated for commenting here(or generally for having an opinion or thought on anything) there were plenty of no medal cards flashed on our panel.

So there you have it.

Now, back to work at the coal fired power plant.

James Tidwell: (if you read SideDish) I wondered if you could tell us the percentage of wines entered that won a medal?

I see from http://www.txwines.org/competitions/lonestar_results.asp

that:
“Twenty-six gold, 81 silver and 172 bronze medals were awarded to entries from fourteen US states and several foreign countries.”

That severely depletes the earth’s metallic resources. Did anyone who turned up NOT win a medal?

Thanks.
