"One of the best wines is undoubtedly this 2015 Rasteau La Fontaine, certainly one of the jewels of the vintage. It might even surpass the sensational 2010. Notes of charcoal, blackberries, blackcurrants, and a lovely minerality come together in a full-bodied, ripe, elegant, and intoxicating palate, brimming with Provençal character. Take it from me, as a fan, it will drink well for well over ten years.” (Wine Advocate 2016 – Robert Parker)
