Judging Results
Medal / Award
Judge 1Very ripe and slightly over fruited. Jubey. A little hot on the palate. Unbalanced.
Judge 2More 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 3Lighter colour, lighter style, red fruit and floral but nice purity to it. Holds together, nice integrity, a pretty wine. Revisited; a little underdone.
Associate Judgegrape stems masking fruit, disjointed palate, body seems out of place and lacks weight
