Judging Results
Medal / Award	Bronze
Overall Score	86
Judge 1	Lovely dark fruits, a softly leafy edge. Frontloaded....falls away a fraction the longer you spend looking at it.
Judge 2	A deeper, richer wine made in a bigger style. Certainly has beautiful, pure fruit but is laden with oak that creates a barrier between the wine and the fruit.
Judge 3	M bright ruby. Bright dark fruit, suggestive of savoury. Sinewy middle, reasonable length
Associate Judge	Meaty, leather, dried herbs, pal is dense and rich, well balanced, tannins sit nicely and give length.
