Judging Results

Judge 1 Slightly herbal but still nice fruit and fragrance to match. Bit sweaty.
Judge 2 Fuller and more exotic nose, leading to a tropical spectrum (potential touch of Botrytis?). Generous fruit on the palate, almost slightly cloying on the finish however.
Judge 3 Ripe, pronounced. Candied pineapple, golden fruit, apricot nectar. Full, rich and concentrated. Tangy acidity. Slippery.
Associate Judge Very lifted nose. Good weight on palate. Intensity of flavour. Persistent acidity.
