Wines 1-26: Overall a very strong class of wines with good fruit intensity and balance - as always some wine showed unbalanced sugar.

Wines 27-56: Enjoyable class - obviously an important blend in the region. Best wine showing lovely acid drive, balance of RS, and clean lifted fruit. Main issue in non medals were forward looking wines.
