he Michigan Wine & Spirits Competition held at the Kellogg Hotel & Conference Center in East Lansing this week saw many familiar names at the top of the winners’ list.

The sweepstakes winners — wines voted “Best of Class” — included the likes of Fenn Valley Vineyards’ 2008 “42″ Vidal Blanc Ice Wine, Left Foot Charley’s 2008 Island View Vineyard Pinot Blanc and Fort-Five North’s 2008 Pinot Noir Rose, a wine with a stack of medals this year.

According to Karel Bush of the Michigan Grape & Wine Industry Council, there were so many roses entered, they had to create a new sweepstakes category.

This year’s competition saw a record number of entries: 395 wines from 42 wineries.
