My father-in-law bought a case of this on release and we have had one each year since. In the past this has always been very tight and structured. This year the tannins have nearly fully resolved and the wine is very fruit forward. I'm not sure that it's for the better, but this is still very enjoyable with a steak. I think in three or four years this may be in its sweet spot.

Special night this evening. Excelsior! “Ever Upward!” One of the best collaborations in wine history. Baron Philippe De Rothschild and the great Robert Mondavi. Beautiful wine!!!

Cellared for 15 years and decanted for one hour plus. Bit of cork problem but simply strained during decant and all was good. Excellent and just as I remembered it.
