| Judging Results |

| dark fruited spicy nose.sweet dark dense fruit, cherry liqueur, oak/tannins showing through a little. |
| Deep red, ripe mulberry, good flavour weight, firmer tannins on thefinish but fruit sweetness carries through, good length |
| ripe dusty cassis and intense dark chetty fruit, gorgeously complete and rich while fresh and elegant. Wow. Pristine, fresh and wonderful. |
| Dense, perfumed, red/black fruit, slightly smoky savouriness, slight apple oxidised character? Lovely acidity and balance with the weight and fruit sweetness |
