Judging Results
Medal / Award	Silver
Overall Score	92
Judge 1	Bright fruits and plenty of redux. Firm tannins. Nice, but lacks a little fruit concentration.
Judge 2	youthful, touch SO2, black cherry. lots of fruit here and vigorous fruit tannin rather than oak tannin. maybe wants a bit more complexity but love the balance and expression here, particularly on palate.
Judge 3	Nice oak, bitter/sweet, cherry, orange rind, round firm tannins, nice length
Associate Judge	Intense, lifted, fresh fruits mulberry, cherry, chocolate. Linear defined acid and tannins, great length and drive through the palate. Well suited to class in terms of structure.
