Judging Results
Medal / Award	Bronze
Judge 1	Blue fruits and cherry spice. Some chocolate and dried herb. Slightly wider framed and mouthcoating tannin. Bit more savoury. Sl lacking
Judge 2	Dark garnet with purple highlights, this wine smells of black tea, oak, and blackberries. In the mouth, nutty toasted oak dominates blackberry and sourish black cherry flavors. The woody tannins coat and then parch the mouth, leaving wood fighting for attention with the fruit. Decent acidity.
Judge 3	riper fruit, dried fig and prune. soft integrated tannins. want more freshness. oak is sitting on top of the fruit and drying it out.
Associate Judge	cooked raspberry, sappy fruit, light structure
