Judging Results
Medal / Award Bronze
Judge 1 berry fruits, fresh palate, just a little simple
Judge 2 Smoke, Crushed leafs over toasty oak, oak giving sweetness, acid slightly unbalanced and hashy finish
Judge 3 There's plenty going on here, but not all of it consistent. Fruit is intense and concentrated (on the sweet jubey side), there's a gentle varnishy lift on the aromatics, the palate is a little awkward.
Associate Judge savoury casis nose graphite blue fruits spices cinnamon clove pepper bit of green tom
Associate Judge Cardamom, coriander seed on nose follows through to palate, quite intriguing. Red plums and current. Herbaceous finish. Showing a little age on palate.
