drink 1st late 2017 or 2018, 2cd 2019
July 2018..full of flavour but concerned it was past its peak...maybe me, maybe poor storage, maybe more aeration needed? Still enjoyed with lamb shanks but like it younger tasting & juicier.
Jan 2023....hope last one no longer around

Veneto, Italy$41.95
Aug 2020.....almost certain we drank this many moons ago, maybe in 2015 on our anniversary. Don't recall how it tasted but I'm sure it was good!

2016-2019
March 2024.....pretty sure this is the only one I have, probably gave one away. Was worried it might be bad but on the contrary quite nice. Certainly aged and smooth, but rich with dense fruit flavours, quite lovely. Had with leftover moussaka. (92)

Dec 23....had with Norah, bbq chicken thighs. Delicious! Smooth, mature, just the right level of richness for me, not over the top. Loved it! (93)
