Judging Results |
Gold |
colour is a touch forward for its age. good fruit weight, balanced oak and complexity, but has short and acid finish |
Sugar floss, Rich nectarine, flinty, Oak present and wine has picked up some colour. Rich round chardy with some intersting layers |
Golden in the glass. Rich, complex, loads of flavour, good length. Curry leaf through the finish, all in all - on the concentrated/intense/ripe/punchy end of the spectrum. Good length rounds it out. Slaty complexity mid palate elevates this wine. |
shortbread honey creamy bready acidities are still very bright statfruity grapefruits pith |
Light flinty profile. Citrus palate, quite seductive with lemon curd expression and little viscosity through mid palate. Finishes with a hint too much salinity, but gets the saliva working and wanting more |
