Judging Results
Medal / Award Gold
Overall Score 95
Judge 1 Jovel and fresh. Spice and red currents. Lots of fun without the need to be complex.
Judge 2 Lifted, clean, spice and fresh with crisp acidity
Judge 3 Lovely brightness and vibrancy- violets and roses in abundance with crunchy red cherry and herbs. Fresh, nice grip adding a serious not to the charm. Drink chilled and just smile; a really happy wine.
Associate Judge bright red, vibrant fruit lift, nice bright fruit palate and line, low oak, pleasant wine but bit simple in mid?
