Judging Results
Medal / Award	Silver
Judge 1	Good colour and vibrancy but lacks varietal punch and definition
Judge 2	Dark turned earth, dark fruit, bay laurel. Dry palate with firm gritty tannin. Italianate.
Judge 3	Smells of vegemite (which I like on my toast). It translates there's a deep dark core. What it lacks is elevation, but that may come. Sleeping giant?
Associate Judge	full garnet, dusty oak, green notes, medium bodied, sour sappy red fruits, slight drying finish, needed more flesh
