Judging Results
Medal / Award
Judge 1 Bruised apple, browning pear. A cookie dough pudginess at its core. Gets off the bus three stops too early.
Judge 2 Quite a corse wine, with a lot of dried oolong tea, dried peaches and a bitterness in phenolics. Theres a heat to the back palate that breaks up the final flow of the wine.
Judge 3 M straw green. Notable dairy, lactic, buttery aroma. Rich alcohol, low acidity, firm finish. Full flavoured, but clumsy
Associate Judge Bit stressed, lacks much fruit and has over extracted characters,
