Judge 2 black fruits, mulberries, licorice, lovely oak dense, violets, bold palate with good forward filling tannins, fine yet powerful, dusty, well integrated oak, concentrated black fruit length with bay leaf.
Judge 3 majenta, soft extract - pretty nose, brooding but brightly lit, some attractive barrel work, features a bit. plums, spices, licorice, violets, chocolates. very pleasing.
Palate is supple and generous without being cloying. lovely tannin management - acids are refreshing - well made wine.
Associate Judge Elegant mix of wild herbs and berries gentle oak aromas mainly cocoa for me. A soft uncomplicated palate fairly fruity and not as complex as the nose
