Judging Results |
Bronze |
Jubey. Black fruit and very ripe. Well supported by tannins - a little drying. |
Dark garnet with purple highlights, this wine smells of toasted oak and mocha. In the mouth, polished flavors of black cherry and plum are wrapped in fleecy tannins that slightly parch the mouth. Silky and bright, but overall a little polished and oak influenced. Missing some stufing. |
Sweet blackcurrant cheesecake reduction. Lovely taughtness and tension with a slate edge |
green peppercorn, balsam, dilute fruit character, washy palate. |
