Judge 1nice colour, slightly fake fruit boiled lolly spectrum , light yet fleshy tannins , wine too sweet / simple ?
Judge 2Medicinal, arnica, euc, cherry. Very sweet intense fruit. Gorgeous palate. Really got this going on. Long finish. Nose a jarring experience - unusual?
Judge 3hint volly? bright cranberry jubey fruits, decent spice. tannin a bit papery to finish, chilled would work. VA a touch too much
Associate Judgequite intense fresh strawberry with some vanilla bean flavour. shows some elegance and freshness in the palate with tannins that are savory and chalky.
Associate JudgeSweet fruits, vanilla, sapas, cedar, juicy, fine tannins, gamey, nice oak maybe a touch heavy but lots of fruit on display.
