Judging Results
Medal / Award	Bronze
Overall Score	89.5
Judge 1	M straw green. White fruit aromas. M+ acidity, some phenolic texture acriss the palate, reasonable depth, just a bit coarse
Judge 2	Long lines and lightly rolled edges. A pithy line through the core. Energy and drive...some all heat?
Judge 3	Touch of development here with some white balsamic lift. Desiccated white florals and white mushrooms are interesting here. A really interesting take on the variety that definitely moves more into that savoury space.
Associate Judge	Some nice lemon rind, tropical notes. leaning slighty too much into the textural components, finishes a bit hot.
