Judging Results
Medal / Award	Bronze
Judge 1	Liquorice and spice, with sweet, pretty roses. Structural integrity. Length and line. A little heavy on the oak with slightly drying tannins.
Judge 2	Dark garnet in color, this wine smells of warm fur, black tea, and oak. In the mouth, oak driven flavors of mocha and black cherry mix with floral and black tea notes. The tannins continue to build and parch the mouth, making for a blocky, teeth-scraping experience.
Judge 3	Sweet lactic boysenberry over some burnt hair reduction. Meaty edged with spindly sour cola type tannin.
Associate Judge	tart mulberry, oak spice, cedar, alluring nose. acid is flat compared to the body and tannin structure. lacking some fruit definition on the palate
