Judging Results
Medal / Award Bronze
Overall Score 88
Judge 1 Orange-golden. Showing development here; nutty and creamy with apricot kernel flavours and candied orange on the finish. Some drying notes emerging at the back but a rich complexity has developed.
Judge 2 Warm topaz colour. Nose of honey and slightly tired sweet hay. Sweetly fruited, woody australian flavour. Very hard to classify since I do not know the variety. Woodiness makes it a bit drying.
Judge 3 Medium gold / pale amber in colour with aromatic spice notes of ginger plant and cedary vanillin oak- supple texture, vanillin richness, overt tannins to finish. Lacking freshness.
Associate Judge gold-bronze color. floral, honeycomb sweet, vanilla, orange oil, pastry dough. overt white florals, geranol charcter, green furry phenolic
