Judge 1	Reductive smokiness overwhelming fruit aromas on nosed. On palate some black fruits emerge but overall bitterness and drying tanin finish.
Judge 2	Inky dark maroon. A bit of sweaty cheesy reduction over black fruits. sound if a bit unexciting. Not fresh.
Judge 3	Firm and structured. Elegant, restrained fruit with innate complexity. Crunchy, then dusty, cinnamon tannins coat the mouth. A touch of reduction.
Associate Judge	mint, stalk, marmite, pan juice. thick black plum core, touch cardoman and anise. quick conctrated and broody. rocky edge to tannimn
