Judging Results
Medal / Award
Judge 1	Slightly baked fruit character, changes the shape of the wine a little, fuller and rounder in the mid-palate. Not a bad thing per se. A leafy edge too. Not classic, but interesting
Judge 2	A bit neutral on the nose with fruit not giving much in terms of aroma. Wine feels slightly tired and without purpose, lost in the middle, singing out for more acid. Tannins are well managed and nicely built but drive a problem here.
Judge 3	M- garnet. Amaro, orange peel. Quite developed for a ‘22. M+ acidity and green drying tannin
Associate Judge	Delicate red through to blue fruits with sweet spice. Fine tannins, fresh pal, with reasonable fruit weight.
