“Tasted from the bottle, Les Obriers 2015 is probably the best vintage of this cuvée to date (followed very closely by the 2016). Blended from 45% Carignan, 30% Cinsault, and Syrah to round it out, it offers the classic, characteristic flavors of dry terroir that I always find in this wine, along with an abundance of sweet fruit, medium- to full-bodied richness, and silky tannins that linger into a superb finish. ” (Wine Advocate 2017 – Jeb Dunnuck) A gem!
