Judging Results
Medal / Award
Overall Score 79.5
Judge 1 badly microbial.
Judge 2 Animal. A shame, because there's some nice powdery tannin structure there. Amaro herbs. Stripped fruit.
Judge 3 Brick red the fruit a little subdued on the nose
Palate driving out micro?
Associate Judge minty, ethereal tones, tobacco and some cinnamon lift. Svelt fruit, tight and tannic that drives the weight. Has broadness and lacking final drive, Alc heat?
