Judging Results |
|
Good colour. Bright and concentrated. Slightly bretty |
minty, earthy flavours, quite firm for the fruit |
A shame that brett is playing a part in this |
savoury mushroom, biscuity, a touch medicinal, white pepper, opens up, grippy tannin dark plummy fruit, good weight nice fish acidity |
