Judge 1blood plum and licorice allsorts , simple
Judge 2Black plum and loads of violets, lifted and pretty aromas. Heady but in a good way. Chewy loaded with dense mid-palate tannins surrounded by roasted plums, blackberries in baking spices.
Judge 3Plum and blueberry, some biscuity oak and milk chocolate. The palate melds savoury and fruit led by plum. A milk chocolate note. Some heat here, with sinewy tannins. A touch short.
Associate JudgeDark plumy fruit married nicely with new oak, earthy savoury texture
