Saturday, January 2, 2016 - Slow-ox 30 minutes, tasted over 3 hrs and day 2
-dark maroon with mild bricking
-plum ripe cherry stewed prunes slight scorched element
-lower acidity, med weight/concentration with some faded but quite sweet plum/black fruit over an earthy core, coffee notes with a little heat and residual med tannins on the average length finish; tannins better integrated and cooked features less prominent on day 2
-OK but not particularly transcending the vintage, might have a couple years of upside to resolve more of the tannic structure
