I think a blog focused only on "food and wine pairing" would qualify as single subject.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I agree writing is a major component of the overall blog. In 2017 we are changing the categories to bring back "Best Wine Reviews" and drop "Best Writing".&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">allanwright</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 16 Jun 2016 10:09:21 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Congratulations to the 2016 Wine Blog Award WINNERS!!</title><link>http://wineblogawards.org/from-the-organizers/congratulations-to-the-2016-wine-blog-award-winners/#comment-2733867579</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Yes, indeed. Congratulations to them! We do not have a policy in place that eliminates blogs from consideration due to prior years' success. It has not happened often.
