| Judging Results |
|
| Deep crimson. A nose dominated by horse saddle and meaty notes, which has also suppressed much of the fruit. Rather astringent tannic finish. Back to the drawing board |
| good colour; reductive, dark red sweet fruit spice and aromatics, grippy tannins - great palate but too reductive-stinky on the nose H2s |
| H2S. Red/blue-fruited palate, simple, maybe drying out, but nose lets it down. |
| struck match, soya sauce, vanilla, spice nose medium weight, good intensity, savoury, graphite notes, great grippy ripe tannin, nice acid balance. shame about closed nose, opening up |
