Overall Score 84
Judge 1 Buttered popcorn, toast and citrus, this is an odd shape - lacks drive and definition even if it offers some interesting flavour.
Judge 2 Very forward jackfruit/durian aroma. Botrytis here - saffron, dank mushroom, honey. Fruit is a bit oxidised too General freshness is missing
Judge 3 Wet rocks and flint. Very nice phenolic and dryness on the palate. Pithy and refresing with length.
Associate Judge Kiwi skin, tangy grapefruit, white florals. Savoury - herby palate. Nice framing of phenolics, strong acid line. Tangy greek yoghurty lees work - texture building.
