Judging Results
Medal / Award C
Judge 1 mod good, nice florals and freshness apparent , red fruits , clean an dlong with resolved tannins and cool stuff
Judge 2 There is something very satisfying and quenching about this wine. From the cooler 17 vintage this shows elegance and finesse. Perhaps lacks some weight through the mid palate expected of the variety? Raspberrycordial, cassis bramble and a lick of blueberry skin.
Judge 3 decent, red jubey fruits, nice soft malleable tannin, bright and fun honest drink. hint lifted?
Associate Judge intense aromatics of plum and dark chocolate liquor. tannins that lingers and good structure. gentle but nice drink.
Associate Judge Red/red. Subtle nose with spice and berries. Nice oak/cedar with red fruits, fine tannins.
