Judging Results |
Silver |
* Deep blue crimson. Oak first noted on nose. Savoury, briary fruit aromas. Good juicy palate, quite tight and fresh. Good structure and richness, oak noted on palate (in class?) |
Very spicy, lots of coffee and liquorice intermingling with the plush dark, sweet berry fruit. A real crowd pleaser yet with nice grip. Slight alcohol warmth on finish. Clever winemaking. |
Ripe tarry characters, but an element of green. just doesnt quite come together |
Clean, deep color good intensity, juicy mulberry, mouthfilling, pleasant tannin finish, |
