Judging Results
Medal / Award
Judge 1	pale, citrus touch of bot, enzyme driven lift, berocca, weird chem palate lacks acid definition
Judge 2	very odd, stripped. smokey, vitamin character, oob, lacks varietal definition.
Judge 3	Powdery, Pez nose, vaguely sweaty. The palate has this character as well, along with a lean/sour/green character that detracts from the pretty spice notes. Zingy acidity but lacking in charm.
Associate Judge	white pepper on the nose quite spicy, smokey pithy.
Associate Judge	lovely lift, nice acid initially. Acid is a tad sour as opposed to juicy and ripe for Riesling style. Picked a tad too early for my mind.
