Judge 1	mod coloiur little murky, greens and cabbagy oak, palate fading oaky lacks charm
Judge 2	older wine, but a little dried out, oxo cube, leafy edge, slippery, high pH, meat falling off bones.
Judge 3	Mulberry, blackberry, and chunky raspberry. Salted black cats. Palate has a saline edge, fennel, nettle and white spice.
Associate Judge	ripe capsicum, paprika, tomato leaf, vanilla and caramel, a lot competing for dominance is it fruit or is it oak,
Associate Judge	coconut, vanilla dominate, nice acid, med weight, well balanced, some age? tannins are soft yet generous, lacking a little on front palate maybe, maybe a tad short too.
