Judging Results
Medal / Award
Overall Score	81.5
Judge 1	Bretty wine with a layering of oak. Microbial issue
Judge 2	Red fruits, spice, almond kernel, cedar. Mid weight, m+ alcohol, warm and easy. Bit earthy on the close.
Judge 3	Oak dominates. Sweet fruited....picked skittle late. No doubt this fruit can express itself if given a chance. Oak amplifies acidity.
Associate Judge	deep purple, diesel notes, ethanol. sappy cola character, some vibrant cherry fruit, shaded?
