You mentioned 16.a3 (I assume you meant 16.h3).
After 16.h3 Qe6 follwed by f6 or 16.h3 Qxe4 17.a4 f6! I don't see any problems
for Black.

17...a5? was a mistake but the moves 19.c4 and 20.Bf6 are not obvious.
Im not sure whether 17...a5 was the decisive mistake.
Maybe Black was not lost before 21...Qh5.

21...Rfe8 22. Rxe8+ Rxe8 23. Rg3 Kf8 24. Rxg7 Re6 25. Qh6 Rxf6 26. Rg6+ Ke8 27.
Rg8+ Kd7 28. Qf8 Ne7 29. Qd8+ Ke6 30. Re8 Qc6 31. Qxe7+ Kd5 32. Qe4+ Kc4
seems to be only a perpetual for example.
