Judging Results
Medal / Award Bronze
Overall Score 88.5
Judge 1 Well handed perhaps not very expressive at the moment
Judge 2 Good intensity of cranberry, cherry on nose. Mocha oak and tannins well together.
Judge 3 Mid cherry colour. Some spice. All spice. A little LDR like. Nicely balanced but lacks a little stuffing and drive . Mid weight wine but well crafted.
Associate Judge floral, enticing nose,
palate fresh and mouthwatering, acid carries nebbiolo fruit well, possibly lacks intensity and length
