Judging Results |
Silver |
purple fruit , mint overtones , brutish fruit on the palate , chunky tannin OK |
Lifted mixed plum/cherry/currant/black raspberry notes (mostly preserved) herbal and floral notes persist. Medium in body with amples fruit supported by vibrant acidity, well intergrated tannins finishing with a solid savory element |
Menthol, red plum, dried thyme. Nice depth to the aromas. Full and sapid palate, with plum, thyme, dark cherry and spice. Fresh plum acid line bringing length. Harmony and balance. |
Bright and juicy, slight forward, palate is a bit flat would like to see more weight |
