Judge 1	sl riper nose, sl waxy, fuller, round
Judge 2	varietal and delicate. savory fresh herbs, coriander stalk and a slight bitter green almond quality. inviting and fresh, with texture. Frosty fruit tang. salted sage. great intensity of fruit, firm structure, great phenolics and fruit purity. Spice, talc and interest and length. Full package.
Judge 3	Bright lemony straw. Beautifully floral nose, pronounced but not pungent. Palate is rounded and soft, quite a nice wine. A bit waxy perhaps is my only quibble. It's a good drink though. Classy.
Associate Judge	Grassy and herbaceous nose. Palate is a bit simple, maybe sour acid.
