2016: 9.2-9.3. 375 ml. Decanted 3 hours. Great surprise. Powerful raspberry, stone and menthol (really) flavors that linger and evolve with more air and time. Just enough tartness and acidity to make it good with food (more so than the darker 2015 Renaissance, e.g.). Will likely age for a while but already approachable. $23 half bottle at Wine Library, probably $40 full bottle.
