Judging Results
Medal / AwardGold
Judge 1Dark berry fruits, weight and drive, again complexity is a little lacking
Judge 2Pretty, floral lift cherry, very juicy and fine tannins, food wine as barbera should be
Judge 3All things in place here - a touch of confection on the palate, but the tannin/fruit balance is what we expect of the variety.
Associate Judgetoasty inviting aroma. candied strawberry, violet, orange pith, CM, bubblegum
Associate JudgeRich nose, ripe and intense fruit of the forest quality. Driving sweet tannin line, filled with chocolate. Maybe a hint of VA on finish
