Judging Results
Medal / AwardGold
TrophyBest of the Rest
Judge 1Some fresh green pea and nettle spice. Good chew and interest. Fresh and vibrant with succulent rocky core.
Judge 2Pale gold in the glass with faint bubbles, this wine smells of warm hay, lemongrass and apples. In the mouth, faint petillance tickles the tongue as flavors of lemongrass, apple, and grapefruit pith have a lovely chalky minerality. Not sure what to think about the spritz here. Not sure it's intentional.
Judge 3shy nose, florals, fresh almond. good phenolics and texture nice drive, want more flavour intensity
Associate Judgefloral, white pepper, good tension and freshness
