Judging Results |
Silver
|
Med+ int, almond kernel, marzipan, nectarine. Lovely weight and texture, honeysuckle. Bright acidity, gentle phenolic grip. Old oak?
|
Sweet cloying oak dominates nose and palate. Choc / vanilla doesn't sit well on palate.
|
Broadness to the palate, with no direction in the mouth.
|
Toasty oak, lemon peel. Palate full and rounded. Perhaps out of class.
