| Judging Results |
|
| Dull oxidized and lacking varietal character and any definition. Phenolic palate doesn't match fruit weight, and soapy finish. |
| Some dissolved CO2. A little confected, orange fruit spectrum. Candied orange, some drying phenolics. Interesting interpretation of the variety but fruit fades and a little hard on finish. |
| Short on aromatics, shy. Forthright acid. Skeletal....I.e. Could do with some flesh |
| brilliant light straw, ripe aromatics- apricot/honeysuckle, bright light bodied style, neutral palate, good crunchy acidity to finish |
