Judging Results |
Bronze
|
savory fruit balance, sweet fruit mid palate soft and squishy finish
|
Jammy, marmelate, some bot, sweet finish, a bit broad and lacking definition
|
Fruit is great. Really plush and juicy, not overdone in the oak or acid departments... all the good things of cocoa, raspberry etc. Balanced and supple
|
leather, earthy. very very ripe rich fruits swiped out with the metallic tannin still leaves nice floral, blueberry note on the palette
|
Dark aromatics, garam masala notes. Rich dark fruit profile, Dark chocolate, black currants. Tannin lifts the fruit
