| Judging Results |
| Gold |
| Tony Mangan Memorial Award for Best Organic Wine |
| Sweet and sour plums. Fruit dominating acidity which is also lost to the tannins on the finish |
| Bracken, forrest floor, white pepper, slight jube and violet, silky tannins, zippy acidity, pretty length and weight of fruit. Nice balance of oak |
| sweet ripe fruit nose, dense berries, herbal/green background, fruit pretty on palate, a nice generous but balanced wine. green a shame though. |
| cedar, spice notes, juicy fruit, tannins soft and integrated, acid backbone |
