Judging Results
Medal / Award
Judge 1Reduction is muting. Soft and a bit blousy. Short.
Judge 2Medium to dark garnet in the glass with ruby highlights, this wine smells of bright cherry and berry fruit. In the mouth, the wine has a carefree berry and plum quality, with fine tannins and little perceptible oak influence. Made in a young fresh style, there's a lot to like about this fresh expression of the grape.
Judge 3Overt burnt hair reduction over wild strawberry fruit. Clipped by sulfide
