Judging Results
Medal / Award	HC
Judge 1	lovely colour, reduced but interesting , palate is coiled and very long , littel covered in reduction byut gd
Judge 2	Superplush and aromatic nose - this is all about neon coloured raspberries, backlit exotic spice and a softly sung chrous of berry fruits in the background. Like a glossy acapella. The palate does not disaapoint. Good length.
Judge 3	dark juicy, some savoury inflections too. dried herbs, spice, game. good tannins, chalky but persistent
Associate Judge	bright purple colour with some raspberry jam notes and clove. very appealing fruit flavour on the palate. tannins are there and give some structure in a quite gentle way.
Associate Judge	Deed red/crimosn. Dark plum, cherry cola. Big chewy drying tannins, need a touch more supporting fruit concentration. Bit too drying on the finish.
