Judging Results |
|
Slightly dried out, leathery fruit. Brick dust tannins. Lacks a little acid thrust, leaving some doughiness at the core
|
Quite jubey with slightly confectioned fruit. Built on vibrancy this wine doesnt quite have the length or structure to push through but a nice example with good tension throughout.
|
M ruby, slightly evolved. Aroma lacks vitality for a young sine. Slightly hollow middle, M+ acidity and tannins quite aggressive for the weight.
|
Nose is closed off, more earthy / meaty characters. Pal is a little drying and doesn't have as much fruit to support. Acid is still bright and lifting.
