Judging Results
Medal / Award
Overall Score	83
Judge 1	very golden colour, skins? sl cloudy, firm acid, chewy finish, sl bitter
Judge 2	med straw colour, a little dull. Full, flabby structure. Sherbert, orange oil, some sour underripe malic green apple flavour. A little unbalanced.
Judge 3	Banana muffin smell. Acid lacking integration quite badly.
Associate Judge	Lively nose, apricot, almond meal, white flowers. Palate is beautifully tied together with a succulent and mouth watering acid. Intriguing wine which I can't stop going back to.
