    October 18, 2021 - Well, an interesting Southern Rhone.
    On nose: coffee, faint grenadine ( Pomegranate)and a ghost of cardamom...
    On palate: all above flavour notes, plus, puree of plum and tart raspberry, faint baking spices , soft acidity and light oak, after a 3 hour decant( a must).
    Strong presence of Grenache( 55%) ...not my favourite grape , but well blended here, with 15% Syrah, 15% Cinsault and other regional grapes for the final 15%.
    In a good place at 7 years of age , can age, a bit further.

    August 30, 2020 - At this price point, this is a perfect wine for every day drinking. It has a nice balance of fruit, structure and acidity.

    November 18, 2019 - Bland, disappointing, may need additional time to open up, good fruit forward nose but too tight so doesn’t add to overall flavor.

    May 30, 2019 - Clean with some freshness, has a touch of minerality and a little bit of a longer finish.

    April 22, 2019 - The 2014 Lirac Baron Louis opens with a delineated nose of red cherry, strawberry, rosemary, lavender and baking spice. I love the rich fruit in this showing because it shows tremendous purity and concentration. There's an impeccable sense of balance and a finish that lingers. At this price-point - a steal!
