Judging Results
Medal / Award
Judge 1	odd green curry aromatics, possible microbial issue, short and firm on the finish
Judge 2	oak driven, herbal with a very austere palate.
Judge 3	tight forest floor and ripen blackberries and chambord notes - playful fruity palate with fine tannins and good length
Associate Judge	Dense fruits and spices, a touch of sweet oak. Generous on the palate, plenty of juicy fruits but just missing a bit more grip and definition.
