Judging Results
Medal / Award Silver
Judge 1 nice col, oak littel 1D , quite charry and slightly short finish
Judge 2 The oak and the winery work sits alongside the fruit - they come as seperate packages at this very early stage. Some time is required to draw this together, but it is a very attractive selection of features right now.
Judge 3 bigger wine, some exotic, spice, coco loco, riper pineapple ascpects, little oak heavy.
Associate Judge good complexity between fruit and oak toast spice notes.good acid line but well balanced with the oak and fruit weight.
Associate Judge lime cordial, stonefruits. Ripe stonefruits balanced with juicy citrus. Lovely lemon finish with touch of barrel ferment complexity.
