| Judging Results |
| Gold |
| Lovley red garnet in colour. Concentrated boysenberry and bramble notes, but with fresh acid and character. Nice tannin balance. |
| Pencil lead and red fruit, pure and quite juicy and gentle, and a very Cab family finish with elegant leafiness. Nice brambly, clean finish. |
| ripe and juicy fresh and well balanced has bergamot tea, brambly, good tannin and red wine gums good soft chewy phenolics |
| Broody red ripe tomato macerated with mulberries. Comes through to the palate with a lively interplay of bright red and purple fruits. Even keel tannin management. No overt green. Very tempered. Simple earthly delights. |
