2012 Lirac “Le Classique”

Domaine du Joncier
Discount Eligible $25.00
SOLD OUT
Imagine a middle ground between a juicy Côtes du Rhône and a grandiose Châteauneuf-du-Pape, and then throw in organic plus biodynamic farming. You have just landed in Joncier’s cellar, glass of Lirac in hand. The garrigue, réglisse, and chewy black fruit are all there, delivered accessibly enough for everyday drinking but bearing the complexity of a more sophisticated pleasure.—Anthony Lynch
