Judging Results
Medal / Award	Bronze
Judge 1	Slightly overburdened with sweet fruit plushness. Lacks a little mid-weight charm.
Judge 2	Extracted and whacked with oak this wine defies varietal typicity and is too soft and directionless for a variety that is known for its structure and drive.
Judge 3	M ruby. Herbal red fruit. Thin middle, edgy acidity, quite sour with grippy tannin
Associate Judge	dense berry fruit, meaty, sweet spice. Pal is powerful tannins sit really well, good balance, retaining brightness while still have deep fruit.
