Judging Results
Medal / Award Bronze
Overall Score 86
Judge 1 very pale, crisp, sl aqueous, some mid palate texture and phenolic interest, saline finish
Judge 2 pretty bright and spritzy florals. lime blossom, talc and crushed salts. Acid a little racy and angular ahead, lacks grounding in fruit weight and phenolics.
Judge 3 Pale straw. Quite pretty spring florals nose: almond blossom alyssum etc. Palate very, very youthful, possibly a bit young to judge in this context. Still a bit of filter aroma. Probably a good life ahead and stands to be a lovely wine but fresh out of the hatchery.
Associate Judge Lovely nose, talc, roses, white flowers, nutmeg. Palate is generous but well shaped with acid pulling into the middle and lengthening. A very delicate wine.
