Judging Results
Medal / Award
Judge 1	Edge of reduction with blue fruit. Very ripe fruit. Quite simple and a little slurpy.
Judge 2	Medium to dark garnet in the glass, this wine smells of struck match and dark fruit. In the mouth, the wine continues in that reduced vein, with tacky tannins and foreshortened fruit. Decent acidity and a bit of stoniness to the tannins.
Judge 3	Meaty deli reduction. Sour lined and lean
Associate Judge	reductive masked fruit, supple palate with muted red and dark fruits. lacking clear expression - less reductive on revist, palate shows a touch more fruit.
