Judging Results
Medal / Award	Gold
Overall Score	95
Judge 1	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 2	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.
Judge 3	Sweet and ripe fruity aromas. A bit beery eastery / overly sweet perfume. Some nice apricot, good length but finishing too sweet.
Associate Judge	Enticing topicals - grilled pineapple, lychee, mango skin. Abundance of perfume. Good fruit weight, extraction with intent, nice phenolics, generous.
