Wednesday, June 23, 2021 - Slow ox'd in bottle for 3 hours prior to pouring. Dark ruby, rusty red rim. Nose of barnyard, mint, burnt(?) stems, charred meat, savory herbs, candied fruit. On the palate, very focused and silky mouthfeel, initial hit of salinity, stems, tart fruit, fernet-like herbaceousness. Short finish of more stems (so stemmy!), bitter tart fruit, slight tannins, heat.

After an hour in glass, palate evolved to be much more sweet fruit forward, heat, less stemmy, plush. Round medium finish. Utterly delicious.

Drink or hold.
