Judging Results |
Bronze |
little fusty musty on the cork, ok bead nicely dry, lacks some fryuit weight , short |
Aromatically bright and full of fruit - the tannins are present and exhibit a raw grip on the palate. The fruit lacks some of the promised freshness from the nose. This has interest and merit but needs to be consumed with food/protein. tight bead. |
honest, simple, red ruby berrys, little grainy and simple, bead / mousee ok. touch clumsy. |
juicy berry notes. good fizz with some acid line going with it.refreshing with good fruit flavour. |
Dark cherry red fruits. Apparent sweetness, attractive creaminess on the palate. Nice sugar acid balance. Nice fluffy tannins. |
