Description du projet
2019 Domaine Pierre Usseglio & Fils Lirac
This estate makes a beautiful Lirac and their 2019 is 50% Grenache, 25% Mourvèdre, 20% Syrah, and a splash of Cinsault that’s from a mix of different terroirs. Destemmed and brought up in equal parts demi-muids and concrete tanks, it’s a seriously good wine that has loads of black raspberry, spice, and garrigue notes, medium to full body, a lush, ripe, yet seamless mouthfeel, and a great finish. It’s well worth seeking out and is ideal for drinking over the coming 3-5 years.
Moving to the 2019s from bottle, the 2019 Lirac offers medium to full-bodied aromas and flavors of dark fruits, peppery herbs, earth, and hints of violets. It’s textured, balanced, and a rock-solid bottle of wine that will evolve for 5-7 years.
