The barrel sample of the 2018 Oublié is made up of 38% Grenache, 35% Mourvèdre and 27% Syrah aging in 45% new French oak. Deep ruby-purple, it slowly offers cassis, boysenberries, blueberries and red berry sparks with loads of floral perfume plus hints of olive and charcuterie. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is silky with slowly unfurling red, black and blue fruits wrapped in a firm, finely grained frame and fantastic freshness, finishing long and perfumed. About 2,750 cases will be made.
