Judging Results
Medal / Award	Gold
Trophy	Best Red Italian Variety Wine
Judge 1	Hard tannins detract
Judge 2	Superb red fruited with floral energy of roses and violets. Attractive power and structure, with tea leaf, grainy herbs, cedar and spices. Possibly too acid driven on finish and alcohol warmth borderline, but fruit is fab
Judge 3	Vibrant fruit jumping out of the glass, savoury showing some alc warmth but not over the top. Pepper and spice. Palate quiet unforgiving. Almost there.
Associate Judge	bright viabrant colour, good rasb, fruit, juicy fruit palate some tannin complex and line
