Judging Results
Medal / Award	Gold
Overall Score	96
Judge 1	savoury, very grippy, lots of tannin, wanting a bit more fruit/flesh
Judge 2	med + ruby, consistent to rim. Bright. Oak! vanilla, coconut, dill. Strawberry, cherry and fresh rose too. There is a lot of oak tannin extract - too much. Sits on top of fruit.
Judge 3	Black cherry, plum, aromas, very nice grip, tannin moving very well front to back. A little bit sweet. Nice.
Associate Judge	Beautiful nose classic Neb, tar, roses and spices. Lovely structured palate. Generous fruit flavour. there is voluptuousness which compliments the tannin and acid. Quite pure. A niggling concern is the every so slight balsamic character??
