October 27, 2023 - Same as last year's note, if not a bit better. Earthier. Very light sediment. Aired in decanter for 3 hrs. Ever so slightly browning rim. Bumped up the scoring for the better, $52 price (after tax). Beautiful BdM. Outstanding QPR.

June 2, 2023 - My note from 2015 was spot on as this wine got better over the following decade. Nose is subdued with just some faint earthy and leather aromas.
Palate is more lively. Bright red and dark cherry fruit is perfectly balanced by Tuscan earth/leather, orange peel, and faint garden herbs. At 19 years, it has become more elegant, but still shows no signs of fading fast with good energy/lift. In a good mature phase now with the tannin mostly integrated, but based on this bottle, no hurry, drink now -2030.1 person found this helpful Comment -

February 11, 2023 - Unlike my experience just two months ago, I feel like tonight this wine was tired, gritty, tart and past its prime. Such a disappointment when compared to just a couple of months ago. A bad bottle somehow?
