Judge 2	mulberry fruit, intense colour. palate is acid driven with great purity. pretty and austere aromatics, medium bodied with nice length and an attractive austerity. am i being sucked in by RS?
Judge 3	Black jelly bean - wet stones and slatey - salinity edged mouthfeel - needs times but tight, dense black fruit
