Judging Results
Medal / Award
Judge 1 A bit stale smelling this. And with hard acid. Not a lot of fun to be honest, although technically fault free. Just the absence of real flavour.
Judge 2 touched lifted (VA), brambly, black cassis fruits, savoury, bay leaf herbal elements persist, palate is forward, warm, fine gravelly tannins at back, aged/developed?, good savoury cedary length. VA persists
Judge 3 a little bit of varnish here. missing some elements.
Associate Judge Dark olive fruit and a bit of Ribena primary lift. Simple yet acidic on finish with dry chalky tannin
