I choked down a bunch of this way too soon to thin the supply. In the past couple years, it has come into better balance and the off flavors seem fewer. Drinking well, and should hold for at least the mid term

This seems to be in a good spot with plenty of upside. There's enough structure to go longer, but it isn't overly dominant at present. Great depth of flavor and some complexity. (note to self to try another in 2-3 years)

This is drinking well, I'm not sure it has the stuffing for a lot more time....tannins are soft, some fruit and secondaries....probably more a middle weight at this point. Very nice, but I don't see this getting any better.

Amaaazing!
Maybe cut yourself some slack and award the better wines you've enjoyed the 100p?!?
Won't kill you to exchange that 94-96 blur for a 94-100 points.
Can’t wait to read your TNs after accepting the 100 points.
…and, yeh, there will sometimes be wines transcending everything. Just like you have already described in your TNs. Let them shine :-)
