Judge 1	Fruit feels overipe, palate feels short but still has freshness.
Judge 2	Fairly neutral nose and palate lacking intensity, feels a little empty, finishes with bitter grip.
Judge 3	sulfide, nutty autolysis is complex, its kind of delicious, but muddles the variety. possibly some oak influence ..interesting style
Associate Judge	Grandma's potpurri drawer. Fleshy yellow grapefruit, pithy too. Delicate. Quiet.
