Judging Results

Overall Score 96
Judge 1 saline with stone fruit edges.. refreshing acidity with bitter lemon note. simple fruited, but pleasant full body.
Judge 2 warm stonefruit, pip flesh, fuzzy peach, saltbaked, preserved lemon. zippy acidity on palate, lacks a little fruit weight to hold in check. Overall impression a bit angular (seems very young), but still pleasure to be found.
Judge 3 riper, quite rich with good texture, pithy good acidity and length
Associate Judge good varietal character, creamy, yogurt mouthfeel, with good texture. overall good balance with acidity and texture.
