| Judging Results |
|
| Nice colour showing a little development and some barrel age. Slight dried fruit and a savoury edge on the nose and palate. |
| Dark plum and prune, dark cocoa. Bright acid jars a little. Powdery fruit tannins. |
| Microbial challenges. Palate shows vibrancy though will fade with time. Chalky tannins support the notion. |
| full garnet, obvious oak, and spice, ripe fruit spectrum, dense, prune fruit, savoury, high bitterness subtracts |
