Judging Results |
Silver |
deep red, cedary vanillar oak notes, dense fruit, balanced tannins, oak again a touch too much |
Plummy, dark fruits, bitter liquorice on the palate. grippy finish but good example |
Nice restraint here - really well handled. Plush fruit sings within a framework of savoury, midweight tannins. |
pretty fruits on nose. has beautiful structure. mint, raspberry. soft silky tannin |
Maraschino cherry and ripe raspberry. Bright, lighter body, slightly drying tannin structure, Fruit forward. |
