Judging Results
Medal / AwardSilver
Judge 1* Deep blue crimson. Oak first noted on nose. Savoury, briary fruit aromas. Good juicy palate, quite tight and fresh. Good structure and richness, oak noted on palate (in class?)
Judge 2Very spicy, lots of coffee and liquorice intermingling with the plush dark, sweet berry fruit. A real crowd pleaser yet with nice grip. Slight alcohol warmth on finish. Clever winemaking.
Judge 3Ripe tarry characters, but an element of green. just doesnt quite come together
Associate JudgeClean, deep color good intensity, juicy mulberry, mouthfilling, pleasant tannin finish,
