Judging Results
Medal / Award	Bronze
Overall Score	88.5
Judge 1	Dark cherry and some rubbed herb, green olive too. Polished palate, almost buffed, but then a wave oaf fine tannin rolls in and gives it some grit. A really good contemporary style.
Judge 2	A rustically medicinal nose with taught acid and fruit that feels slightly tired and out of condition. Some tertiary development already so freshness an issue here.
Judge 3	M bright ruby. Aroma more evolved than colour suggests. Oak oaver restarined cherry fruit. Soft middle, then drying tannin finish
Associate Judge	A bit restrained in terms of fruit power on nose and pal, nice tannin structure, falls away at back a bit quick.
