Judge 2	Plummy dark cherry and spice.Big wine, dense and rich with crunchy acid to finish
Judge 3	sweet cherry pie, cola, sausage, slatey stripped tannin
Associate Judge	briar fruits, leafy green, velvet palate briar fruits & choco, tomato leaf finish
Associate Judge	Quite bold fruit, lots of red and black with a herbal edge in the back palate, a surprising amount of acidity through this wine. Fruit is in good condition but seems overripe for the wine and the structure falls in on itself
