Judging Results
Medal / AwardGold
Judge 1Off dry and delicious - like still Lambrusco.
Judge 2big, bold, chunky and still very bright- lovely violets fragrance, mixed with blackberries, liquorice and tar. Inky core. Lots of consumer appeal right here, grainy yet silky. Fun wine. Brave. Well done.
Judge 3Lovely perfume and fragrance. Slighty sweet but works with the wine.
Associate Judgefragrant red fruit, slight herb, red fruit palate, med weight, clean fruit line and persistent, very drinkable.
