Judging Results
Medal / Award	Silver
Overall Score	93
Judge 1	very fragrant, sl sweet? sl heavier palate, savoury thread through the wine, firm
Judge 2	pith, simple/reserved nose. RS blowsy on palate, acidity pushes through and lacks integration and completeness.
Judge 3	Bright lemony straw. Nose has a lifted floral aromatic, lilies or fresh hops, somewhat pungent. Palate is nicely roundly fruited, a little coarse to length.
Associate Judge	Pretty nose - rose water, apple blossom. Palate is sweet but balanced. A bit of saltiness. Perfect with a bar snack
