Judging Results
Medal / Award
Judge 1	VA. Port-like characters. Over ripe and short on palate.
Judge 2	Pine/menthol note on nose a touch off-putting, as is medicinal palate.
Judge 3	a bit forward pushed and some awkward coconut oak makes it challenging
Associate Judge	Sharp, red dark toasty bark shavings. Mint lift. Well handled tannin. Long and persistent, chewy and salivating. Mint holds it back.
