Overall Score 96
Judge 1 riper, quite rich with good texture, pithy good acidity and length
Judge 2 warm stonefruit, pip flesh, fuzzy peach, saltbaked, preserved lemon. zippy acidity on palate, lacks a little fruit weight to hold in check. Overall impression a bit angular (seems very young), but still pleasure to be found.
Judge 3 saline with stone fruit edges.. refreshing acidity with bitter lemon note. simple fruited, but pleasant full body.
Associate Judge good varietal character, creamy, yogurt mouthfeel, with good texture. overall good balance with acidity and texture.
