The wines below are easy to drink, but difficult to judge, most particularly as a class. Stark differences in sweetness level and style means it’s difficult to compare apples with apples, which leaves us instead judging cumquats with mandarins. That said, in a rich style, De Bortoli’s Noble One 2020 from Riverina was a clear winner at this year’s judging.
