Judging Results
Medal / Award	Bronze
Judge 1	Darker, more fruitcake, big powerful glistening and sparkly this one.Some peanut. Dense deep dark, has strenth and power and responsibility. Oak maybe a bit raw, bit lets see where this goes. Nah: too warm.
Judge 2	horsey/weedy aromas of Brett, leathery palate, dusty fine tannins, very hot palate, disjointed, tannins linger well.
Judge 3	vegetal, something blocking the fruit dimensions here.
Associate Judge	sweet spices and leafy red currants and herbaceous elements. A mixture but misses primary drive
