Judge 1 Savoury, new leather, warm spice. Red fruited, fresh and vibrant. Tannins are a little drying on the palate, needs a touch more concentration. Very drinkable.
Judge 2 Nice fruit and a hint of oak. Perhaps a little dry and aged. Dusty dry finish.
Judge 3 Lighter style for the variety; almost lacking in concentration.
Associate Judge Dark berry, brambly,aniseed. Good mid palate fruit sweetness, well managed alcohol. Ripe tannins. Delicate for a Zin but with good complexity.
