Judging Results
Medal / Award
Overall Score 81
Judge 1 Brick red, med depth, mint, raisin, some tertiary and raisin on palate, bit dried out
Judge 2 burnt orange/chinotto over-ripe fruit with drying tannins
Judge 3 mature colour and maturity on very spicy nose. Some nice richness to fruit but lots of oak and a very drying and bitter finish that falls away.
Associate Judge VA, sweet jammy fruit, overripe, big bold drying tannins, wow, lacks drive through the palate, upfront tannins overpower the wine
