Judging Results |
Silver |
Med+ int, almond kernel, marzipan, nectarine. Lovely weight and texture, honeysuckle. Bright acidity, gentle phenolic grip. Old oak? |
Sweet cloying oak dominates nose and palate. Choc / vanilla doesn't sit well on palate. |
Broadness to the palate, with no direction in the mouth. |
Toasty oak, lemon peel. Palate full and rounded. Perhaps out of class. |
