Judging Results
Medal / Award Silver
Judge 1 lifted lively intense perfume, glossy cherry, touch of botanical complexity, lovely glossy fruit, juicy acidity
Judge 2 Bright juicy red cherry nose - touch of attractive balsmic complexity. Mid weight and juicy on the palate - attractive red fruit, acid and tannin balance. Very good.
Judge 3 minty, eucalypt, dark cherry fruit and lots of it, lots of chocolate, well made wine but herbal character is dominating a little
Associate Judge Intensley fruited, slippery mid palate with a bit of appeal, but menthol is overpowering
