Judging Results
Medal / Award Gold
Judge 1 some good ripe honeysuckle aromas, good savoury texture, dry mineral finish, touch of phenolic grip
Judge 2 Very restrained nose - struggling to get anything apart from a touch of toast. Quite attractive on the palate - textural and savory. Good length
Judge 3 touch of cheesy lees, vibrant juicy citrus on front palate, Falls away a little too quickly.
Associate Judge Straw. Mango skin/ apple skin. Restrained, toned down exotic fruit. Mellow, broadly textured, salty palate... subdued, but rolls on and lingers
