Judging Results
Medal / Award Silver
Judge 1 purple red and very grapey. Reminds of cool climate European wine like Blaufrankisch
Judge 2 Dark fruited, structured tannin. Nice core of dark fruit isn't quite enough to hold up to the tannin and it dries out on the finish
Judge 3 Rich concentrated black fruit. Durif? Has a dark fruited core with some red fruits around the sides. Assertive tannins and freshness bring this wine into balance.
Associate Judge lifted herb, mint, red fruit aroma, nice bright red fruit palate, med weight and some nice acid/tannin line
