Judging Results
Medal / AwardBronze
Judge 1Bright red cherry, juicy. Simple fruited, but enjoyable.
Judge 2Nice, pure cherry and plum on nose, a pleasant sourness, nice spice and tannins aren't intrusive but not the easiest flow.
Judge 3a bigger riper style, ripe fruit carried by good acidity and good tannins warm but generous, acid finish twangy
Associate JudgeFive spice and a black licorice hint of VA lift. Blueberry on the nose leads into that underripe acid spectrum. Confusing.
