Judging Results

Judge 1great colour, Inky fruits, sweetnsour elements density verging on overripe.
Judge 2A bit pasty - but when you get past that, nice dried herbs/medicinal notes, juicy perstence, sour plum fruit, ripe tannins. Well done.
Judge 3Closed nose giving little away. Greater generosity on the palate. Fullness of fruit slightly verging towards 'dry red' style.
Associate JudgeBigger form, brooding fruit yet fresh. Dark fruit. Pal is a little warm and boozy rouge. dark fruit, bigger. Raspy tannins. Lacking poise. A bigger style.
