Judging Results
Medal / Award Silver
Judge 1 Weight....both in terms of flesh and phenolic impact. A wine to wrestle with. Powerful and impressive
Judge 2 Hints of struck match on the nose create a divisive start, a tightly wound structure grips to fruit that is shown as the main event, helped by a steady hand that creates both breadth and interest.
Judge 3 Pale strW green. fresh hay-like aromas, soft shite fruit middle, impression of sucrosity but lovely cleansing acidity keeps it all in check. Good linearity
Associate Judge Musty and a bit dank covering up fruit. Pal is a bit rough and becomes disjointed.
