Judge 1 jubey, floral, fairly simple, slightly sweet? and lacking depth
Judge 2 dried herbs. mint and menthol. bit sappy and wine gums fringed with dark choc shaving. jubey fruit on palate, rather green but there's been some play with freshenss. bitter herbal finish. bit too far into the confectionary isle, but the bunchy spice is endearing.
Judge 3 very ripe red cherry, almost fresh jam like. jam compot palate, spice in the mix. pleasantly fresh and not cloying. strong intensity of primary fruit. firm sound structure with good length
Associate Judge spices, herbaceous dominant coming forward with candy cherry. nice juicy with balance mouthfeel
