Judging Results
Medal / Award Bronze
Judge 1 Rhubarb crumble, some beety earthiness too. Supple and juicy thought the palate.,.,.energetic bounce. Very fine grained tannin weave.
Judge 2 A little round wine, softer fruits here with some plushness and spice. Woven well with tannin management creating some poise. Slightly too packaged and shiny but still enjoyable.
Judge 3 M ruby. Aromatic fresh dark cherry. Angular palate structure, soft middle but is all around the edges. Lacks harmony. Slightly bitter phenolic finish
Associate Judge Sweet spice, complexity of dark fruits, teetering on desiccated. Pal hold the dark fruit well, broody and fuller while still maintaining balance.
