The “refined power” of Lirac wines.

Of the 13 crus in the Rhône Valley family, Lirac AOC wines convey the facets of their personality according to a common theme: elegance and refinement. Behind this gentle exterior lie wines of astonishing richness and complexity.
This “refined power” is a character trait of Lirac wines, making them unique among their peers and the cream of the Rhône Valley crop. Theirs is a world of essentially feminine values.

Red Lirac wines

To the eye, these are distinguished by their beautifully intense colours. Their deep-ruby complexion gleams with tints of intense blush pink. On the nose, a bouquet of red fruits, black fruits, garrigue ans spices. With time they take on a noble stature, revealing notes of leather, liquorice, truffles and cocoa.

On the palate, finesse is their middle name. And yet this finesse conceals a richness and ample texture that promise long life. This texture gains in prominence, becoming more pronounced and lush.

This full flavor is coupled with impressive frehness and very good aromatic complexity. These wines' full body means they can stand up to strong-tasting and spicy food: tagines, bouillabaise, stuffed aubergines and tomatoes... They also make a perfect complement for Asian and Oriental cuisine.

White Lirac wines

Lirac's whites are graced with a clear, luminous colour and a glimmering disc. The bouquet reveals a palette of both floral and fruity aromas.
They offer notes of acacia, lime trees and fennel, which mingle with fragrances of white peaches, apples and exotic fruits.

With time, these aromas evolve into hints of honey and garrigue : laurel and plant essences. On the palette, these wines are subtle, delicate and strongly fragrant, and leave a pleasantly freh sensation on the finish.
