Judging Results
Medal / Award
Judge 1Bullied by oak.
Judge 2Very wine port gummies. Hefty handed oak just puts the fruit in the background and overpowers the savoury elements behind.
Judge 3M ruby. Meaty, some development starting to show. Heavy oak char influence. M acidity, medium weight, soft tannin finish, just overbearing oak flavour
Associate JudgeVanilla +, 1D in terms of fruit but pal has pretty smooth tannins and pal has pretty good balance.
