Slow ox’d overnight. Deep dark magenta color (with little to no signs of age). Blackberry Fruit Roll-up, brown sugar, and subtle chocolate. Very dry, plush palate. Firm, medium intensity tannins on the longish finish.
This was nice, but would have been better with a one hour traditional decant. The fruit comes off as a bit stewed. Nice QPR nonetheless.

14.8% ABV, a little higher than I normally enjoy.
Plum, dark cherry, blackberry, dark chocolate, pencil lead. Great structure, can hold for 5+ years easily.

Beautiful nose, nice but not overpowering fruit. Solid tannins and consistent flavor from first sip through back end swallow.
