"Smoky notes of mesquite mingle into plump flavors of preserved plum and red-cherry coulis in this weighty, richly concentrated blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre. Sourced from limestone soils and drenched with sunshine and peppery spice, it's an elevated, penetrating expression of Lirac that should improve through 2030. Anna Lee C. Iijima"

"Savory accents of smoke, anise and hazelnut mingle into juicy black plum and dried strawberry flavors here. A rich, creamy blend of Grenache (70%), Syrah (20%) and Mourvèdre (10%), it's balanced by lip-smacking red currant acidity and a fine grip of tannins on the finish. Delightful already but should hold through 2025. Anna Lee C. Iijima"

"Red-cherry and blackberry notes are shaded by tones of anise and forest floor in this full-bodied, Grenache-dominant red. Red-currant acidity lends crispness to the midpalate, accented by fine but drying, grippy tannins on the finish. Enjoy this elegantly structured but easy-drinking wine now through 2026. Anna Lee C. Iijima"

"Mont-Redon's Lirac is a medium-bodied, supple blend ofGrenacheSyrah andMourvèdre. Cherry, cinnamon and leather notes all make appearances, backed by nearly creamy-textured tannins. It's a smooth, easy-drinking red for drinking now-2017."

"Light gold with greenish tints. Attractive nose of tangerine with a floral touch and vanilla undertones. Supple attack showing savoury, closely-integrated stuffing that is light, fresh and easy-drinking. A good Lirac that needs a little more bottle time."
