Judging Results
Medal / Award Gold
Judge 1 gd colour, ripe spice nose , solid pervasive tannins but nice and sonsistent . gd
Judge 2 lots of violet high tones, meaty undercurrent, some pepper there, powerful blue fruits. nice fine tannins, well balanced.
Judge 3 Blackcurrant pastille, turkish delight, rose petal, crushed pistachio. The palate follows on from here - a whimsical framework of fruit, white spice, a firm trellis and plenty of tannin that ties it all together.
Associate Judge blue fruits, cloves, fennel seeds, ground pepper, good tannin, graphite, long drying length
Associate Judge oyster shell, raspberry, tannins dominate palate, drying, shame as front palate has some juiciness, clean wine, well made - tannins too much unfortunately.
