Judging Results
Medal / AwardBronze
Judge 1Lifted and effusive, some taut nuttiness, some citrus freshness and a sprinkle of salt crystals through the finish. A bold wine eager to impress.
Judge 2Reduced on the nose, bordering on sulphuric. A bold fruit spectrum is presented here with some riper mango and tinned peach elements. Despite the larger fruit spectrum, there is structure to back it up. Nose lets it down.
Judge 3Pale straw. Intriguing white fruit aroma. Soft middle, acidity in the background. Lacks linearity
Associate JudgeClosed off, pal doesn't have a lot of fruit. There is nice brightness but wine falls away.
