Judging Results |
Bronze |
Slightly sour orange. Edge of volatility and a hint of bitter note. |
Nose is dulled. Pal sees some fruit sweetness and an okay structure, just lacking intensity and depth. |
Firm, glass staining colour and intense nose with violets. Juicy and supple with nicely integrated tannins that blackberry and cherry fruit hangs off. |
dark rich fruit, sweet spice, richness translates to palate. structure does appear to hold with firm ripe tannins. lacking some fruit complexity, all dark and spice. |
