Judging Results
Medal / Award Bronze
Judge 1 Mulberry fruit, some sweet spice. Soft and willowy on the palate, just lacks a little etching and structural oomph.
Judge 2 Fruit presents well here, nicely placed in the wine but definitely sitting in the more confectionary space. Well put together with fruit weight driving the wine. Would like a bit more savoury character to build depth.
Judge 3 M ruby. Developing red fruit, starting to turn towards the leathery end of the spectrum. Medium savoury tannin finish weigh
Associate Judge Closed off on nose and pal. Slight greeness too. Pal lacks flow and is disjointed with sweetness.
