Judging Results
Medal / Award	Bronze
Judge 1	very closed nose, not showing a lot of fresh fruit to balance the complexity. a little hard on the finish
Judge 2	Juby, spice, some bunch perhaps on the slighly chewy fininsh but bright
Judge 3	Resiny oak on the nose. On the palate the fruit is ensconsed in it - the fruit does eventually pull through it however the oak is playing a dominant role at this early stage.
Associate Judge	letter earth vanilla spices cinnanmon nutmeg close oak still well presence need time
Associate Judge	Bright burst of fruit on nose and up front. Little minty on finish. Tight line of palate
