It opens with a deep, complex bouquet of dark wild berries, black cherries, violet and licorice, complemented by subtle spice and a discreet touch of oak. Medium- to full-bodied, it’s rich and enveloping, with a fleshy core of fruit, layered textures and a harmonious mid-palate. Framed by velvety tannins, it concludes with a long, spicy and ethereal finish. This is a serious Lirac that will reward cellaring over the next decade or more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRobert Parker’s Wine Advocate · 92 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003ch5\u003eAbout the Estate\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003ePascal Lafond’s family-run estate is based in Tavel and makes wines from Tavel, Lirac and Châteauneuf-du-Pape.
