Judging Results
Medal / Award	Bronze
Overall Score	89.5
Judge 1	Long lines and lightly rolled edges. A pithy line through the core. Energy and drive...some all heat?
Judge 2	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.
Judge 3	M straw green. White fruit aromas. M+ acidity, some phenolic texture acriss the palate, reasonable depth, just a bit coarse
Associate Judge	Some nice lemon rind, tropical notes. leaning slighty too much into the textural components, finishes a bit hot.
