Judging Results
Medal / Award	Bronze
Overall Score	85
Judge 1	Lifted florals and green herbals and nettle. Basil spice. Has some aspirin salty. bit forward.
Judge 2	Pale amber in the glass, this wine smells of wet leaves, orange peel, and candied apricots. In the mouth, yellow herbs, apricot, tinned peach and baked apples are wrapped in a lightly grippy skein of tannins. Clearly some skin contact here, with a light herbal bitterness lingering with the chalky texture in the finish.
Judge 3	orange tinge, lemon rind and volatile. sour acid on palate with some redeming savoury notes.
Associate Judge	medium straw, apricot, peach, floral, ripe fruit but bone dry and has a phenolic dryness on the palate.
