Judging Results
Medal / Award	Gold
Judge 1	great colour, complex iodine and red fruited nose, great savoury tannin acid balance yum
Judge 2	lovely, exotic blue fruits, rp / td, nice fine tannins. acid a little pokey, fresh and youthful
Judge 3	Aromatically pretty, red fruits, somehow a salty palate! Umami. Tomato. I like it a lot. Interesting, engaging, full of personality and bounce. Kind of rustic. But also kind of modern too. Love the lingering aftertaste.
Associate Judge	raspberries, strawberry, concentrated juice, nice acid, drying finish
Associate Judge	Shaded blackberry, Mod to high acid, some juiciness in mid, lacking complexity, vanilla pie crust on finish.
