Judging Results
Medal / Award	Silver
Overall Score	90
Judge 1	blue fruited, pretty, creamy, good reduction, fine tannin and tight finish, little tar
Judge 2	purple hued. ribena juicy, bit warm on the nose. white balsamic and slight chlorine note. slinky tannins, first impression a bit of fruit and savory bloodiness. But quickly falls away and lacks some definition. touch drying on finish. However, overall effect is a drinkable crunchy red.
Judge 3	Purple rim deep plummy. Very youthful floral and aromatic, Lavender stalk, violets. Soft, round and very easy drinking. Lots of mouth aromatics. Summery delight. Touch monodimensional but does it matter if your goal is to be drunk within 6 months?
Associate Judge	Lovely bright nose - pretty, black jelly bean, spice, but not too showy. A gentle palate. Nice dollop of fruit which gives way to a gentle tannin and subtle acid. Wine may be lost within in the bold bracket but it's lovely
