Judging Results
Medal / Award	Bronze
Overall Score	88
Judge 1	Slightly grubby and hollow. Microbial issues?
Judge 2	A beautifully mineral driven nose! A bright example and one that perfectly captures the interplay between savoury spice and lean yet powerful fruit. This is Grüner with cause. A great wine with depth, power and finesse.
Judge 3	M straw, some green hues. Restrained white fruit aroma. M acidity, middle slightly hollow, cleansing phenolic finish.
Associate Judge	Musty, closed off nose. Pal falls a little short. reductive...
