Judging Results |
Bronze |
good, vibrant cherry fruit, quite extracted and savoury tannins, but in balance and style |
Deep colour with lots of blackberry and mulberry fruit. Big soft and juicy on the palate with some firm, slightly bitter tannins - touch of florals on the palate |
charred meat, sweet fruit up front, pretty hefty tannins. bit blocky but nice concentration |
Reductive. Bold, tightly wound. Fruit closed. Bitter, tar, dusty mouthfeel. Wants to unfurl. |
