Judging Results
Medal / Award	Gold
Judge 1	Deep crimson. Very slow to open up with hints of iron. slightly tart blueberry fruit. Not bad just too tart and astringent, but stylistically on track. just needs more ripeness
Judge 2	A certain succulence, lovely earthy dusty palate, round, subtle tomato leaf, but beautiful round palate, we'll handled, almost Burgundian texture
Judge 3	tomato-leaf.. some nice xmas cake, complex yet light nose. Palate drying and sl devel. secondary red fruits, acid holding, tannins. OK
Associate Judge	spicy, prune leather nose with some sour cherry, palate drying, tannin out of balance, lacking some fruit
