Judge 1	Pretty spicy, any grenache in here? Peach stone florals and sandy tannins, and biscuit richness. Spice and tannins and flesh. There's a space - an openness - to this.
Judge 2	oak/char forward, juicy red/black fruits dominate behind that, sweet spice, warmth mocha raspberry fruits, chalky chewy bold tannins. Good weight and balance.
Judge 3	pine resin, choc mocha. not interesting.
