Judging Results
Medal / Award
Judge 1 waxy purple fruits, staining colour, tannins are lightlish and acidity is a bit pokey. looks a bit dilute, lacks concentration
Judge 2 liquorice, broad palate. good intensity.
Judge 3 Mocca infused bright red & black fruit - oak steeped with vanilla essence and over ripe plums
Associate Judge Really intense nose, very closed and brooding, super dark fruits. Plush vibrant juicy and super drinkable, tannins aren't intense but that's not a bad thing, not a keeper, definitely a drinker.
