Judge 2 Toasty, flinty, worked nose. Curry leaf and brine. Crushed nuts and ripe stone fruit. Rich. No back palate. OK length but it seems to avoid the finish somehow, fruit has a hole.
Judge 3 pretty funky and interesting, rindy glace fruits, nice slate and mineral. good wine, heavy on oak?
Associate Judge flint funky nose. the acid line is present in all the palate. some minerality but not overly.
Associate Judge Butter toast, age character, toasty oak integrated with juicy citrus.
