Judging Results
Medal / AwardBronze
Judge 1There is a fresh element of fruit, combined with a volatile edge. Very good balance, though volatility is an issue.
Judge 2Very dark, nearly opaque garnet in color, this wine smells of black cherry and blueberries. In the mouth, rich black cherry and blueberry fruit is crushed in a muscular fist of tannins that dry the mouth. Brawny and massive, with good acidity but ultimately too aggressive tannins.
Judge 3Big ripe blackberry blackcurrant number, lovely lactic tones. Extracted and innately fruit sweet, baller yet lactic fresh
Associate Judgeunderipe blackberry, grape stalks, easy drinking frame. lacking some intensity but nice spice quality and medium finish
