Judging Results |
|
Choc powder and ripe plum, some espresso too. Skinny, leathery....very drying across the palate. Gritty tannin....oak lets it down.
|
A nicely woven wine with lovely texture. Nice slippery tannin and a granitic edge come together with some campari smudges to create a wine of interest. Layered with spice and complexity. Oak a little niggling here with some overpowerment of fruit an issue.
|
M ruby. Bright red fruit aromas. M - acidity, lacks some freshness but reasonable depth. Soft finish
|
Dank on the nose and pal lacks fruit drive. Palate feels a bit clumsy.
