March 4, 2023 - Very fruity, berries, plums, also a bit (too) jammy, heavily extracted, missing freshness and elegance for me. Still quite tannic on the finish. Certainly not bad, but not my preferred style. 15/20

February 27, 2023 - The next bottle was excellent, full bodied, hedonistic and no signs of decline at all. Loved it.
