Reserve Saint Dominique Lirac Rouge 2017

''Notes of ripe plum and licorice are featured from nose to finish in this full-bodied, freshly concentrated red. The wine is silky, well balanced, finishing on a twist of tart cassis and fine tannins. Best now–2025.'' Anna Lee Iijima, Wine Enthusiast Magazine

''Fans of Châteauneuf-du-Pape will find plenty of interest in Lirac as a growing number of Châteauneuf producers have taken positions here. Lying just across the Rhône river, slightly west of Avignon, with soils quite similar to those at Châteauneuf, Lirac’s wines tend to be fleshy and ample, with forward fruit and gentle tannins that make for early appeal. Best of all, they offer stunning value.'' Josh Raynolds, Vinous Media

''If you want to explore Southern Rhone Cru's that offer high quality, affordability and that will also age beautifully. than look to Cairanne, Lirac, and Gigondas for high quality, affordable, southern Rhône red wines.'' Michelle Williams, Forbes.com
