Judging Results
Medal / Award
Overall Score 84
Judge 1 Smoky reduction, a little closed, then surprisingly soft, buttered nectarine, quite sweet and lacking zip. Balance seems off.
Judge 2 Dirty Leesy. White stone fruit. talcy texture and acidity. salivating. honeyed texture. nice persistence.
Judge 3 lime rind and tinned fruit richness. good body. finishes short on sugar
Associate Judge Sulphides, envelope a cashew cream, leesy nose. Undertones of apricot and almond-skin. Riper fruit profile, texture influenced by wine making, RS filling back palate - touch too heavy on the RS. Sweet sour.
