  I don't understand the lower ratings.
  I have had this cellared at 56 degrees for years. Must have been a gift pre covid.
  Beautiful floral notes initially followed by black raspberries and mulberry. Super ripe and balanced with structural acidity and tannin that is the sought after iron fist in a velvet glove.
  I loved it with celery root and eggplant with aged balsamic drizzle accompanying with flat iron and flank steak drizzled with black truffle balsamic.
  Great pairings

  Can still detect the inky core of fruit albeit diminished. Tannins and acidity have faded away, leaving the edges pretty soft. Not much life compared to a few years ago.

  This hasn’t changed a great deal since the 2020 tasting note, not improved but still drinking very well. Very good wine. Should be ok for another few (3-5) years.

  consistent with previous note. Still drinking very well and should last at least for two-three more years.
