Judging Results
Medal / Award	Gold
Judge 1	Supple, sinewy, bright and energetic. Some blue fruits and florals, fennel seed and garrigue. Taut and tapered.
Judge 2	Well built with some nice savoury, orange oil characters. Fruit looks a little tired in the back palette and tries the finish slightly
Judge 3	M ruby. Tarry red fruit. Slightly soupy middle, cleansing tannin
Associate Judge	Cassis, sour cherry, violet, herbal characters on nose and palate. Great acid brightness, well structured and dense wine but retains fruit brightness.
