Judging Results |
Bronze |
Soapy florals and some oak? Restrained and elegant acidity, gentle bitterness/phenolic grip. Ginger-like warmth. |
Evident Oak seems to hide any varietal character. Wine is also a bit thin to carry the oak. Dry finish. |
Slight dirty/musky to the nose adding to the aroma. Good length on the finish, without excessive alcoholic heat. |
Preserved lemon. Almond oak. Spicy fruit, toasty oak. Good persistent acid. Nice oak tannins on finish. |
