Judge 1 Deep colour, ripe dark fruit, rich and ripe, suggestion of creamy wood, intensity lasts and has youthful energy to the fruit.
Judge 2 m+ concentration, ruby. cedar, smoke char... Blackstrap fruit, dried condition to the fruit. Black liquorice. Sweet vanilla, cinnamon oak note, heaps of tannin. Palate shows a bit of blue boysenberry like fruit. oak tannin is aggressive. Someone would love this I guess..
Judge 3 intense aromatics; black cheery, balsamic, cinnamon. Dense and sappy palate is quite firm and lacking some fruit / plushness. heavy on the gums. Acid balance ok.
Associate Judge Chocolate-cakey, porty heavy set nose. Warm palate, lacks freshness. Muted fruit - flat.
