Judging Results
Medal / Award Bronze
Judge 1 Slightly over ripe. Detracts from line and poise. Nice fruit and style. SImple and very dry tannins.
Judge 2 Dark garnet in the glass, this wine smells of mocha and green herbs. In the mouth, oak driven flavors of mocha and bitter espresso are all wood and little fruit underneath. Just simply overoaked. Comes across as thin.
Judge 3 Sweet blackcurrant boysenberry fruit reduction, cola. Typical raspberry cola like notes, nice sandy tannins
Associate Judge muted red fruit, touch of balsam and spice. minimal fruit expression, well structured.
