Judge 1Red fruited. Ripe. Lacks some integration and balance.

Judge 3Sweet red cherry, sweet leather. Nice crumbly tannin, blood and bone finish
Associate Judgesweet vanilla, red cherry, cedar. tense acidity - oak is present but fruit character is there to match it with nice sour cherry and plum - med plus length, pleasant tense texture.
