Judging Results
Medal / Award Bronze
Judge 1 Delicate floral and citrus with nicely handled textural/phenolic elements. Good balance. Touch of oak aids complexity.
Judge 2 pleasant enough, not so crisp, in fact tiny bit oily, looks a little mature, needs fish in tomato sauce!
Judge 3 A bit honeyed and developed, riper flavours and more complex aromas, Palate is still fresh and lively but falls short on fruit
Associate Judge A bit phenolic and sweet on the finish/caramel/ lovely nose. Interesting
