Judging Results
Medal / Award	Bronze
Judge 1	Candied stretched fruit one the nose. Dull and cooked. Tart and cooked fruit palate that is unbalanced. Slightly grubby finish.
Judge 2	Curious. Dried herbs, green olive, red fruit, cool spices. Mid weight, integrated acidity, firm, tacky tannins. Lacks a core of sweet fruit, but briary and savoury.
Judge 3	Candied nose, stewed rhubarb (Grenache notes). Colour suggests age. High notes without the bass. Would love more core.
Associate Judge	over/under ripe characters of prunes/dark fruits, some spice, dry savoury palate, fresh acidity, long persistence, picked a tad late?
