Judging Results
Medal / Award Bronze
Judge 1 Slightly muted and a little reductive. A little flat on the palate, spreads wide without layering.
Judge 2 Freshly cut strawberries dipped in orange liquor, an alluring nose with poise and prettiness. A more restrained version with pencil shavings and graphite edge. A bit of intrigue and interest built in its savoury elements and florality keeps the palate pretty. A wine that is in the details for sure.
Judge 3 M- ruby, some evolution. Meaty, gamey reduction. Hollow middle, M+ acidity and drying tannin finish. Too tannic for the middle weight
Associate Judge Some pretty red fruit characters - delicate. Fine tannins but lacks fruit power on the pal.
