Judging Results |
Bronze |
medium weight, lacks fruit weight and drive |
Some herbs, but red fruited and some oak showing, cherry, juicy mid palate |
Acid is clunky and sits astride the fruit. Oaky. Not enough fruit power. |
capsicum, raspberry leaf, generous white pepper, sparmint acidity very high metallic |
Light bodied. Little more on the prunish side, oak is looking older. Oxi extension |
