Judge 1Very pale lemon yellow. Sprinkling of spice, white florals and pear. Moderate intensity. Fresh airy style. Little edgy and tart on the acid. Clipped length, short.
Judge 2Sauv Blanc yeast driving the style, where is the Viognier character? Slight bitter greenness on end.
Judge 3lots of fruit lift, exotic perfume. not sure whether is yeast derived? follows through in the elegant and refined palate.
