Judging Results
Medal / Award	Bronze
Overall Score	86
Judge 1	bright blue fruits. very fragrant and bright nose. lively acidity and great drive on palate. acidity finishes a bit forceful and detracts from overall fruit
Judge 2	fleshy purple and blue fruits, aromatic, mouthcoating and tense
Judge 3	Ripe varietal berries but a bit thinned out on the palate; acid and length but a bit out of whack on fruit oomph.
Associate Judge	red cherry light floral lift, vibrant acid, nice light fresh herbals. Acid is well managed. plump and delicious, fresh and fun
