Judge 1 Semi aromatic with pome fruits, herbs, reasonably juicy intensity, clear with a touch of grip, gently moutwatering acidity. Nice wine; could do with more intensity/complexity.
Judge 2 Light straw, water rim. Aromatic, lifted stone fruit blossom - apricot, yellow peach. Clove spice, ginger and light nut quality. Waxy palate, more neutral than the nose suggests. Lower acid varietal, made up for by some savoury grip.
Judge 3 Fresh aromatics, a little bit tanky. some nice citrus and apple, granny smith on the palate. Nice length. Clean.
Associate Judge Ripe, layered florals + stone fruit. Dry, waxy apple skin, almond, light lees texture, doughy-saline.
