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.

4Voyager Estate Voyager Estate Girt by Sea Cabernet Sauvigon Merlot 2013
Some interesting wines. Top wine in the Bordeaux blend style, looking very crunchy, slurpy and a great drink. Other wines require care with tannin extract (green tannins) and oak treatment.

Interesting class. Top wines with lovely drinkability and perfume. Oak treatment a bit questionable on some of the weaker wines.
