Judging Results
Medal / Award Gold
Judge 1 Fragrant and warmly spiced, dried cherries, mace and clove, old leather, dry herb. Nicely weighted, beautifully fresh acid profile, exquisitely fine, terracotta tannins.
Judge 2 A richer style but with a liveliness - a silverfox of a wine. Dapper in its makeup it exudes class and poise - really well managed tannin and acid to write home about this wine has an intensity and brilliance that sees a purity of fruit above all.
Judge 3 M bright ruby. Bright red cherry fruit. M+ acidity, fresh middle palate flavours, on the lighter side but with fine savoury finish. Good linearity
Associate Judge Some nice fruit characters but isn't overly lifted, pal has good structure and is bright.
