Judging Results
Medal / Award
Judge 1	Toasty oak and spice. Clover and hard edged. Not harmonious
Judge 2	Pale to light gold in the glass, this wine smells of sweet oak and white flowers, in the mouth, oak and citrus pith flavors mix with unripe apple. Good acidity but ultimately too much wood influence leaves the wine with a bitter note in the finish.
Judge 3	warm oak spice, sitting on top of stone fruit, oak is drying on the palate, doesn't have fresheness and power to support
Associate Judge	richness, not as fresh, waxy
