Judge 1	Youthful, light ruby. Sweet spice and cherry; forward and plush with vanilla and coconut notes. Crunchy fruit with quite a built structure around it.
Judge 2	Med-dark maroon. Nose has a bit of an odd blackcurranty aromatic, and some vanillin oak. Ever so slightly vanilla-cherry cough syrup impression. Palate attractively rounded and good acid, not super tannic. Cheerful wine.
Judge 3	Initial cedary oak & tertiary dried cherry complexity, vanilla extract VA, sweet fruit appeal on palate, elevated alcohol, overall big juicy package.
Associate Judge	earthern mushroom, wet clay. Charry sweet oak dominates palate. fruit is and typicity lost
