Judging Results

Judge 1fresh berry fruits, nice weight and balance,
Judge 2Touch closed, some juby fruits and pepper spice, nice graphite like tannins, some porty oak
Judge 3This is a lovely wine. The succulent fruit is shaped by chalky, gently grippy tannins that spool out through the finish. Purity and density of flavour are both key here - really impressive.
