I've been drinking these over about five years (bought EP), and it's not getting any better. The fruit has never been great, quite thin, and just way too much acidity relative to the other components.

Nice subtle pepper note with rather suave plush fruit on the palate. Love the voigner component giving it a lovely floral lift on the palate. Still seems to have oak to integrate, which was rather distracting to the otherwise terrific wine(toast and tar notes, I guess oak? Only 50% new oak). Best to hold and hope the oak integrates.

While my wife liked this wine I didn't find anything compelling about it that would warrant the $60. I found it to be a bit thin on body. Some interesting spicy flavors , good acidity.

Sweet fruit with balanced structure. Worked great with steak and truffle shaves in truffle oil.

Opens nicely after a couple of hours of decanting
