Judging Results
Medal / Award Gold
Judge 1 Candied orange, caramel, hazelnut, rancio. Fully sweet but a lovely lick of acid to keep it just in check. Med+ length.
Judge 2 Holds intensity on nose and palate, but fades quickly on the finish.
Judge 3 Full honeyed nectar like with perhaps a little age. Marmalade and toast.
Associate Judge Rich candied ginger, caramel. Full bodied, unctuous dessert wine. Nice line of acidity. Clean pure flavours.
