Judging Results
Medal / AwardSilver
Judge 1Savoury spice.. hint of struck match.. some waxy grip... chew and white peach.
Judge 2Pale gold in the glass, this wine smells of pears and citrus pith. In the mouth, vaguely saline flavors of unripe pear and citrus oil mix with dried herbs and a touch of fennel seed. Faint chalky texture, excellent aciditiy.
Judge 3low intensity waxy nose, nutty character, citrus peel. lovely phenolics and structure. herbal mineral note, lots of complexity, a lovely drink
Associate Judgesavoury, mediium weight, nice freshness, but lacking depth and complexity
