Judging Results
Medal / Award
Overall Score 84
Judge 1 Ripe and black-fruited with chocolate notes. A decadent palate, almost figgy-ripe, warmer-climate expression. Plush with a coating of ripe tannins, held together by the acidity. Sweet and spicy complex oak on the finish.
Judge 2 Very deep/ dark colour, touch brickish at edge. Smells like molasses and formic acid. Very dense fruit, salivating acidity. Not very fresh.
Judge 3 Tertiary dried cherries, leather, some VA, cedary vanilla oak. Palate savoury, dominated by drying tannins.
Associate Judge boot polish, dark spice touch oak lift. charry oak overpowers everything
