"A gorgeous looking Lirac, and one of the strongest efforts from this up-and-coming appellation, the 2013 Lirac Clos de Sixte is comprised of 50% Grenache, 35% Syrah and 15% Mourvedre and was brought up in 70% concrete tank and 30% in small barrels. Medium to full-bodied, with good concentration and bright acidity, it has classic black raspberry, creamy licorice and spice in its layered, elegant and lively profile. It will drink nicely on release and evolve through 2021. - Jeb Dunnuck"
