| Judging Results |
|
| pungeant fruit aromas, some heavy reduction , stewed fruits, brooding power, caramel character |
| oak aromatics, palate lacks generosity of fruit. |
| baby food red fruit compote - juicy crunch in mid palate with a tom leaf save edge that falls short |
| Has a real fresh tomato pasta sauce note to it, also a herbal note, masking the fruit notes a bit. Tannins initially very chewy on the front then quickly dissipate. |
