95 Points

Saturday, May 11, 2013 - Deep and meaty, ripe and sexy, mature yet fresh and full of vitality, a juicy core, sneaky power, and altogether one of the most sensual bottles I've drunk this year. I fear I may be underscoring it.

This bottle was pristine. Fill was excellent, just above base-neck. Cork was soaked through and came apart upon opening, the bottom portion ending up in the wine.

Drunk at Prezza Boston, where the fire last summer clearly did not impact this bottle. I was told that the cellar was unaffected save some slight water damage to a few labels, and remained cool even as the fire raged back in the kitchen.
