Judging Results
Medal / Award	Bronze
Judge 1	Big and dark fruited, some murky reduction too. Firm tannins and lively acidity, but the fruit profile just seems a little sluggish.
Judge 2	A wonderful bouquet of florals here, with red, white and green flowers all presented together. Bit of green bunchiness uplifts the structure but does detract from the pure fruit at this wines core. A cabernet drinkers sang but one that feels just a little too green.
Judge 3	M bright ruby. Young raw fruit reduction, tanky. Soft M acidity, soft fleshy middle, savoury tannin all on the finish. Slightly disjointed, but some decent flesh on middle palate
Associate Judge	Lifted florals, blue fruit and sweet spice. Pal has lovely smooth tannins, brightness from good acid balance, lovely fruit weight, balanced components, would love a bit more length
