Judge 1	lovely blue fruits, blue berry, jam, well crafted, some nice spice, fruit is lovely, wine is relatively simple in its style
Judge 2	flinty reduction, briar, mezcal aromatics. bunchy, great intensity and drive.
Judge 3	Cigar leaf, bright red cherries and black plums - spiky tannins that drips with the lush fruit with hidden but balanced acid
Associate Judge	Dense and dark in the glass. Very serious deep dark fruit and earthy spice notes. Juicy earthy spicy dark red fruits, decent length and acidity, lingers in a balanced sweet and savoury way.
