Judging Results
Medal / Award
Judge 1 mod col, light slightly tinny nose, good freshness , red fruits fades slight bitterness on back pal but pleasing
Judge 2 The red fruit has a bitter edge - like biting into a green apple after eating cheese. The mid-palate has a hollow core of fruit, with some summer mulberry fruit couched in the pepper spice.
Judge 3 bit of a lift there, hanging in there for a 15, but best days are behind it, skeletal fruit. some gamey licorice redemption.
Associate Judge ripe plum and blueberry fruit aromas.a bit to ripe. toasty notes from the oak. good structure
Associate Judge red/red. Subtle dusty nose developed characters.
Some red fruits but aging away. Thin acid finish.
