Judging Results
Medal / AwardBronze
Judge 1Reduction overshadows varietal character and palate interest. Shame, as the palate shape is lovely.
Judge 2Palest gold in the glass with a hint of green, this wine smells of wet chalkboard, citrus pith, and apples. In the mouth, stony apple and citrus pith flavors have a nice wet-chalkboard minerality and a touch of salinity. Pretty and bright
Judge 3Slight bruised banana and walnut husk. Quite extracted although saline at the same time, great length.
Associate Judgestone, cream, muted marmalade nose, med int, simple finish
