Note di degustazione
The Lirac appellation allows considerable flexibility in the grape varieties permitted, and the 2019 Lirac Blanc La Reine des Bois includes six of them: 35% Grenache, 25% Clairette, 15% Roussanne, 10% Marsanne, 10% Viognier and 5% Picpoul; ten percent of the total was barrel fermented. Scents of crushed stone, apricot and tangerine dominate the nose, while the medium to full-bodied palate is rounded, creamy and ripe. The finish is soft and easygoing. Drink it over the next year or so.

A mix of most of the permitted white varieties (mostly Clairette, Grenache Blanc and Roussanne), the 2019 Lirac Cuvée De La Reine Des Bois Blanc is thrilling stuff, and I’d certainly put it up with any of the top Châteauneuf du Pape whites out there. Light gold hued with a clean, classy bouquet of crushed citrus, spiced pear, white flowers, and honeyed minerality, it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, beautifully integrated acidity, and a great, salty, lip-smacking finish. It’s well worth seeking out and is ideal for enjoying over the coming 2-4 years (although I suspect it will last even longer).
