RED SINGLE VARIETIES

Judging this category is such an interesting process – instead of comparing a dozen wines against each other, you weigh the wine on its own merits. What we look for is ‘typicity’. It’s a challenging endeavour, but one that rewards wine professionals who taste often and broadly. The best examples display purity of fruit, an identifiable style, and an appropriate amount of winemaker influencethe world of wine is broad and deep. Matt Storz
