Judging Results

Judge 1	very oaky aromas on bouquet. good fruit weight and drive, just finishes too oaky
Judge 2	Moving to golden, wood dominated wine, angular sappy tannins
Judge 3	Fresh cut limes, red apple skins and white peach. On the palate there's a cola sweetness to the fruit, all ramed by vanilla oak. Bit oversweet to be balanced
Associate Judge	freshly opened vanilla pod tasted coconut honeydew melon juicy peach hint of root ginger. yum
Associate Judge	Sweet nougat and fig on nose. Toasty notes of oak pushing through. Warm rich and round. Just finish with a bitterness that pushes the warmth out
