Score 93/100 · Drink 2017-2030, Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate, Oct 2017

The 2015 Lirac La Reine des Bois continues this estate's mastery of the appellation, combining hints of vanilla with black cherry fruit in a full-bodied, richly textured and tannic wine. The blend is 40% Syrah, 30% Grenache and 30% Mourvèdre, with up to 15% being aged in barriques. Longtime readers will be happy to know that the 2010 (still youthful) and the 2006 (nearing maturity) are drinking well. Based on that, expect this vintage to drink well through at least 2030.

Score 15.5/20 · Drink 2017-2021, Jancis Robinson MW, Oct 2016

Equal parts Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre. Destemmed. 12 months in stainless steel. Tank sample. Tasted blind. Blackish purple. Bright and glossy. Some pepperiness. Very slithery in texture but without a really convincing fruity core. Rasping finish. (JR)

Big and spicy on the nose. Just a little formless with some astringency on the finish. (JR)
