Judging Results
Medal / Award	Gold
Overall Score	95
Judge 1	lemon pith and preserved pulp, supple waxiness, some pepper leaf spice. Energy, drive, detail and length.
Judge 2	Fruit and structure are well placed here, nicely wound together and produce a wine that has a lovely savoury element that sits at its core. Alcohol a touch warm here just too much that it dissuades the wine in a direction that is less than favourable.
Judge 3	M straw green. White fruit, lightly jamine. Soft textured middle, M acidity, cleansing finish. Well balanced, decent length
Associate Judge	tropical fruits with a slight dankness. Pal is a little disjointed with acid tartness - doesn't sit in the wine, finishes without the fruit.
