Judging Results
Medal / Award Silver
Judge 1 nice color, big baby spew character and complexity . lacks a littel drive acidity wise but charming and nice drink
Judge 2 Kelp and citrus, hyper acid on the palate - puckering. Really good direction though - piercing. Tight. Some expansion through the finish. The palate is savoury and flinty, super worked, rich. Like it.
Judge 3 more melon / spice, some wax / lanolin, fuller bodied, mlf characters, rich and textural, good oak interaction.
Associate Judge almond meal and flint notes to it. misses some fruit weight to go with the acid line.
Associate Judge Subtle developed nose. Ripe stonefruits and finishing citrus.
