Judging Results
Medal / Award
Judge 1Delicate on the nose, soft, round and a little sweet through the palate. Interesting though a little undefined. Sweet/sour.
Judge 2Palest gold in the glass, this wine smells of apple and a hint of salty buttered bread. In the mouth, crisp apple and a touch of salted butter mix with stonier notes. There's a faint yeasty quality to the finish.
Judge 3Mango oatmeal. Overtly fructose driven and sweet, flabby
Associate Judgemuted white delicate florals, lemon pith, good tension of acidity, with medium length of ripe pear and honeysuckle
