Judging Results
Medal / Award	Bronze
Overall Score	88
Judge 1	juicy finish, long, great intensity, loads of flavour, long
Judge 2	lime pith, light toast, white floralas and sea salt. Plenty of fruit sweetness on palate, but seems in check and tight phenolics hold it. organge leaf and slight bitter note. glossy, yet savoury notes and detail. structure props this up.
Judge 3	Bright lemony straw. Ripe melony and yellow fruits, tending slightly tropical. Fleshy and rounded palate. Sound but ripe and soft.
Associate Judge	Such interest in the nose. toasted nuts, unfortunate elevated SO2. Palate is nice - texture is good but again SO2 masking
