Judging Results
Medal / Award	Silver
Judge 1	Liquorice spice and red currant fruited. Bold grainy tannin with dried herb. Succulent core
Judge 2	Inky purple in color, this wine smells of oak and herbs, blackberry and blueberries. In the mouth, intense blackberry and blueberry flavor are wrapped in a muscular fist of tannins. Excellent acidity keeps things fresh but the tannins start to dry the mouth with time. Just a bit too much oak here.
Judge 3	anis, menthol, herbal notes. generous palate with well managed tannins, juicy and succulent
Associate Judge	Black fruits, menthol, spice, nice pallet weight a lighter style that sits nicely on the palate
