Judging Results
Medal / Award Gold
Judge 1 purple, nice lifted purple fruits, gentle palate , rewarding and juicy , simple but in a gd way
Judge 2 dark and dense, lots of jubey fruit there though, pretty medium bodied, has elegance and subtlety, persistence of flavour and fine talcy tannin.
Judge 3 Red berry fruit, sarsaparilla, red cherry cola, crushed pistachio, hints of rosewater, white and black pepper. Palate is elegant and balanced. I love this. Fresh, complex, layered, good length of flavour. Formidable tannins - but not off-putting. Yep.
Associate Judge eucalypt, bay leaves forest fruits, bright fruit, great body weight, med tannin, lingering finish
Associate Judge Lemon rind, white pepper, must. juicy, rhubarb and blackberry, green peppercorn, youthful tannins, sl drying on finish. Really interesting. good weight. would like to see how this develops.
