Judging Results
Medal / Award
Judge 1 Very ripe and slightly over fruited. Jubey. A little hot on the palate. Unbalanced.
Judge 2 More delicate and pretty still has some darker berry fruit while being light and lifted. Palate is again light and pretty, nice bright acid would like to see more fruit intensity.
Judge 3 Lighter colour, lighter style, red fruit and floral but nice purity to it. Holds together, nice integrity, a pretty wine. Revisited; a little underdone.
Associate Judge grape stems masking fruit, disjointed palate, body seems out of place and lacks weight
