Judging Results
Medal / Award	Bronze
Judge 1	gd colour, nice complex nose , iodine and steel, nice strucute quite long.
Judge 2	UR/OR, sappy plucky tannins, lots of fruit density, lacking a little resolve, youthful and gangly, finishing a little short and shaded.
Judge 3	Sweet black fruits on the nose, complemented by black spice and good concentration of flavour. Firm structure, tannins are (greenie??) leaving a lean impression in my mouth.
Associate Judge	nose touch red peppers, good fruit sweetness as well,med body, blue fruits, plum, quite bright, silky tannin
Associate Judge	Touch musty nose. Palate is clean, juicy, tomatoey, hint tobacco leaf like oak. Quite complex, interesting. Good density of fruit, pretty good overall, would like to see a little more generosity and suppleness, but really well handled. Excellent balance.
