Judging Results |
Gold |
Purple red, black fruits, rich plummy palate with black fruit, firm tannins |
great layering on the nose, spices, deep fruit and intensity, a little tight and would've liked to see a bit more juiciness |
Deep dark red. Nutty oak. Rich red fruits and mint. Rich, full bodied style. Firm tannin finish |
a touch close but good red fruit aromatics coming through, then some more textural nose with some christmas cake and vanilla. On the palate a bit dry with some oak impact. |
