Sunday, June 2, 2013 - Same good story between the Reine des Bois and Dame Rousse: while the latter is gourmand and outgoing, the former has more humility although its qualities are truly an upscale. Here, the blend is of equal parts Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre, giving it a more complex equilibrium. In the mouth, it’s a beautiful expression of Lirac offering at least the same aromatics as the Dame Rousse plus some important insertions of dried garrigues and sous-bois in its primary aromatic stage. Crying for air to open up, this is a top notch Lirac. 89+ points
