Judging Results |
Bronze |
complex oatmeal and struck match aromas. balanced fruit, good length |
Lanoline, solidsy funk and savoury, perhaps lacking a touch of fruit purity in favour of solidsy character. Savory, salty palate with some grippy phenolics |
Oak too heavy handed - claws at the finish. Hard work. |
flinty gunpowder very quiet nose. very descreet but structured pink lady apple peel in the end |
Super sweaty reductive in style, phosphorous. Comes through onto palate. Reduction to much for the weight of the fruit |
