Judging Results
Medal / Award Silver
Judge 1 A bit cineole minty this one.Piney too. But has fruit depth. A fab core of fruit though, and melting tannins. Will go higher if cineole is not issue for others.
Judge 2 leafy lovely mint notes, gives over to cassis, cigar box and bay leaf. Lovely elegant wine. Tannins powdery and fine with lovely fruit concentration, pot pourri on palate. Supple, elegant wine.
Judge 3 ripper, gold.
Associate Judge Bay leaf rolled tobacco has a bit of age but still some persistence. red berry still coming through fairly fresh and an ok package
