Robert Parker - Wine Advocate
Wine rated 94–97/100 (Exceptional wine)
About the wine:
A potential star in the making, the 2017 Terrasses du Larzac Le Songe d'Eocène (tasted as a blend of samples from several barrels) is slightly less aromatic than the standard bottling, but it is more concentrated. Full-bodied, creamy, and opulent, it combines blueberry, licorice, and vanilla in a breathtaking whirlwind of flavors, with a long and intense finish.

About the wine:
A single-vineyard selection and a cuvée from old vines, the 2017 Le Songe d'Éocène reveals a deeper color and a fabulous nose of olives, pepper, and gamey black fruits. Full-bodied, beautifully concentrated, with good acidity and a supple, smooth texture, this is a lovely, distinctive Syrah (with a touch of Grenache and Mourvèdre in the blend) from this estate that will age well for over a decade.
