97 points Jeb Dunnuck The 2018 Eaba is another wine from Jim that puts its foot firmly on the ripeness pedal and offers a blockbuster-like style of ripe black fruits, wood smoke, cured meats, and peppery goodness. Full-bodied and concentrated on the palate, it’s flawlessly balanced, has gorgeous tannins, and a great finish. Drink it over the coming 10-12 years or so. (8/2021) 95 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate EABA (an acronym for End All Be All) is Andremily's relatively new Rhone blend label. The 2018 EABA is a blend of 59% Syrah, 23% Mourvedre, 15% Grenache and 3% Viognier, coming from Bien Nacido vineyard (Santa Maria), White Hawk vineyard (Cat Canyon), Alta Mesa vineyard (Santa Barbara County), Larner vineyard (Ballard Canyon) and Harrison-Clarke vineyard (Ballard Canyon). The wine was vinified using 60% whole cluster and aged for around 22 months in 50% new French oak barrique and 50% used French barrique. The alcohol is 15.3%. (LPB) (10/2021) 95 points Vinous The 2018 EABA is another impressive wine in this range. Ample and explosive in the glass, the 2018 hits the palate with masses of dark fruit, chocolate, spice, leather, tobacco and menthol. Bright savory accents from the 60% stems lend energy and freshness. (AG) (10/2021)
