Medal / Award
Judge 1 huge thiol, passionfruity characters , not very varietal
Judge 2 Sweaty and worked without being pleasant. Fruit is thin. Leaves a green apple flavour.
Judge 3 out there, lifted guava, spice. good fruit florals, passiona, decent drink, a bit atypical, guava savvy!
Associate Judge tropical fruit intensity. guava and green mango. lacks a bit of freshness in the mid palate maybe due to ripe fruit character.
