Judging Results
Medal / Award	Bronze
Judge 1	Also complex, but a bit more dried tropical and burnished. Has peel and things, quite zesty chewy and pastry crumble at the back. Which is good. Top flavours here: warm and brioches poached fruit tasting.
Judge 2	lovely yellow stone fruit, biscuity, touch warm, lively acid, toasty nutty length, touch RS/alcohol sweetness on palate but solid wine
Judge 3	bright lemon colour. overripe characters. lacking tension and structure.
Associate Judge	Colour is concerning. Palate shows progressive oxidation making a wine looking more flat and tired lacking fruit presence and identity
