Judging Results
Medal / Award Silver
Judge 1 Blue/black fruit with a minty lift. Attractive
Judge 2 Fresh and elegant, oodles of cherry and cranberry with blossom, sandalwood and dried herbs. Crunchy and fresh, what a charmer- yet with a mineral cedary tannin grip to add seriousness.
Judge 3 Slightly dull and not giving much omg the nose. Palate lacks fruit weight and concentration.
Associate Judge nice bright berry fruit aroma, juicy fruit palate, med weight, some tannin
