Judge 1 Crunchy fruit with bright acidity. A hint of warm minerality, dried bay leaf and plum. Freshness and mid-weight structure. The finish has good definition and clarity of fruit.
Judge 2 Dark plum maroon. Nose shows a bit of woodiness, perhaps a bit of cheesy lees. Lots of plummy purple fruits to length though, wine is no slouch.
