Judge 1	VA, acetic, sl sappy, sour, balsamic .... drying
Judge 2	plenty of oak, nicely fragrant though masks the fruit a little right now. Nori, plum skin, bundles of spice, aniseed, earth, choc tarry oak, plenty of fruit, fine silken tannins and fine line of acid. A bolder age-worthy style but made very well.
Judge 3	Cherry maroon. Leafy rude cabernet character - I love it. Wet clay yellow bell pepper, bit of perky oak maybe. Mid weight and cheeky bright. I love this style. Fun and super youthful. This in five years would be cool as.
Associate Judge	Oak, dusty American, cocnutty oak. Hot finish, coconut finish and a faux creaminess - looks like classic oak alternative character
