Judging Results |
Bronze |
Plenty of oak, dark fruit underneath. Concentrated, briary fruit, lively acidity; unfortunately the oak dries the palate. |
Bright clean wine but fruit is a little sweet & confected. Acid slightly out of balance. Evident oak. |
Nose slightly closed but leads to a v.good palate. Round and soft palate, with good centre of fruit. Crunchy fruit and finish. |
Cherry ripe. Minty. Lots of juicy mid palate fruit sweetness. Textural. Dusty ripe tannins. |
