Judge 1 Rather empty hollow biscuit. But a decent palate, with reasonable spice. Has chew and spice. This is toothsome.
Judge 2 Brettanomyces
Judge 3 really enticing black olive, bay leaf, turned earth notes here. I love the nose!
palate follows suit with a crunchy leanness. wonderful.


Associate Judge peppery and mulberry a hint of clove spicey element then sagey on palate running into a dusty tannin fringe with continuing drying sensations
