Either one will work to sanitize the bottles -- but if you use iodine, you'd
damn well better rinse it out *completely* before bottling if you want
drinkable wine.

I use a solution made up of 2 ounces potassium metabisulfite to 1 gallon of
water to sanitize the bottles: swish it around, pour out the excess, and
bottle without rinsing.
