Judging Results
Medal / Award	Gold
Overall Score	95
Judge 1	Sweet and ripe fruity aromas. A bit beery eastery / overly sweet perfume. Some nice apricot, good length but finishing too sweet.
Judge 2	Deeper colour, more aroma, golden apples and honeydew, touch of grapefruit. Juicy, some grip, nice balance and some persistence. Could do with more intensity?
Judge 3	Straw/green. Fresh herbs upfront, pea tendril. Lemon citrus, green apple, underripe, sour white peach. Palate is vibrant, lots of crunchy, with great concentration of fruit. long, persistent acid line.
Associate Judge	Enticing topicals - grilled pineapple, lychee, mango skin. Abundance of perfume. Good fruit weight, extraction with intent, nice phenolics, generous.
