Judging Results
Medal / Award
Judge 1strange aroma and possible biological issue with this wine.
Judge 2Grubby nose, fleshy fruit but a dank, wet character that detracts.
Judge 3Grimy oak. Burst of red/ purple fruit clipped by tannins. Chalky tannins. I like this wine....commercially challenged but compelling.
Associate Judgeruby red, musk stick, violets, light savoury style, fine grain tannins lead into moderate length, needs more fruit weight
