Judging Results
Medal / AwardBronze
Judge 1good colour, nice darkness and depth on nose , palate is tannic but fine with nice persistance
Judge 2Gamey/meaty/pongy on the nose. The fruit is incredibly pure and consistent, and with good length, too. A big fan of the fruit quality - ripeness feels consistent, and the colour is moving to fuschia on the rim.
Judge 3nice bright ruby hue, good red currants hint of florals some nice spice, grainy gritty tannin, bit of coffee grind there. oak?
Associate Judgeslightly reduced on the nose.but quite smooth tannins on the palate with nice fruit flavour to it.
Associate JudgeRed/crimson. Reduced, H2S, grubby. Cleaner palate, fine dry tannins, dark fruits with savoury elements. Needs a good decant/aeration.
