Judging Results
Medal / Award Bronze
Judge 1 red berry primary fruits. Sl reduction on the back. dried herb. Soft and plush
Judge 2 Medium to dark garnet in the glass, with some purple highlights, this wine smells of dried flowers, black cherries and blackberries. in the mouth, juicy blackberry and unripe blackberry flavors mix with sour cherry and citrus peel, with hints of dried herbs and dried flowers. Powdery mouth-coating tannins. I would like a little more of that citrus peel kick in this wine and a touch more acidity but other than that it's quite good.
Judge 3 funky reductive note, green edge. anise. herbacious, interesting non primary style.
Associate Judge slightly reductive, dilute
