Judging Results
Medal / Award	Bronze
Judge 1	Fleshy, at the riper end. Perhaps to its detriment. Just lacks a little etching and detail
Judge 2	Quiet pretty, lots of red plum and florals, some bright cassis notes darker the spectrum and bring depth into the final wine. Slightly confectioned on the palate, lots of tart cherry and driving acid. A nicely woven wine with prehensile tannin.
Judge 3	M bright ruby. Fresh lifted red fruit, slightly leafy. Good fresh fruit presence, soft rounded middle, quite rich, medium acidity and fine tannin
Associate Judge	Rose petal, desiccated fruit, sweet spice. Pal is smooth, medium bodied, nice fruit sweetness
