Medal / Award	Gold
Judge 1	nice colour, quite butterscoth and almond meal , nicely handled oak with generosity and some lneght, X factor?
Judge 2	exciting white floral lift, lovely oak delicate and seamless
Judge 3	Smells like ripe lemons still on the tree. Good build. Lots of layers to this luscious wine, rich fruits but shows elegance still. Oak is a touch too prominent on the finish but overall controlled.
