Judging Results
Medal / Award Bronze
Judge 1 Ferrous and feral, ironstone and roadkill. Tight and tannic, perhaps a little too tightly wound.
Judge 2 Blackberries with a saline, salty edge. Some saltbush kicking around in this medium bodied dark fruited wine. Quite nicely structured with loose tannins knitting the fruit together.
Judge 3 M- ruby. Amaro-like. M- acidity, dark fruit core, strong drying fruit tannin finish. More of a southern style
Associate Judge Green, tinned veg. Under-ripe? Pal is a bit green and drying
