France > Southern Rhône > Lirac

Lirac is a Southern Rhône wine region found on the western side of the Rhône River, just a stones' throw away from Châteauneuf-du-Pape. This is a juicy and vibrant iteration of the region, produced by sibling-duo Marie & Francois Giraud at their organic estate in the heart of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Crafted from 60-year-old vines, this is a typical blend of of 60% Grenache, 20% Syrah, and 20% Mourvèdre. Bright, fresh, and wondefully aromatic, this is a lithe and agile red (despite its 14.5% ABV) brimming with notes of juicy red fruit. A delicious alternative to Châteauneuf. 

93/100 - This impressive Lirac deftly combines southern power and stony freshness with stacks of fine tannins, licorice- and autumn-leaf complexity and ripe cassis character. The long, structured finish is fresh and dry but also very well balanced. A cuvée based on grenache from 60-year-old vines plus syrah and mourvedre. Drink or hold. - Stuart Piggot, JamesSuckling.com

On the nose, notes of violets and plums burst from the glass, accented by touches of wet stone minerality and lots of tapenade and fennel.

On the palate, lots od depth yet juicy with impeccable balanced and a fine thread of acidity that lasts to the very finish. This is a very long, very complex red full of red fruit flavours with notes of spice.
