Judging Results
Medal / Award	Bronze
Judge 1	Tiring slightly....some geraniol and bracken. Lacks some of the acid driven energy great sang should have.
Judge 2	Tart strawberry with confection on the nose, a whack of oak is still yet to be integrated in the fruit. Acid feels harsh and green and the final wine is disjointed.
Judge 3	M- garnet. Evolving hue. Cherry, leathery bouquet. High acidity, lighter middle, good savouryntexture. Light powdery tannin finish.
Associate Judge	Lifted violet, blue fruit, cola. Pal is bright, good structure, lacks fruit to support weight, slight warmth at end.
