Moulin des Chênes Lirac
A soft and generous red wine bursting with bold red fruits, subtle spice, and velvety tannins
Moulin des Chênes Lirac Lirac AOC from Southern Rhône, France is a still, dry red wine, expertly crafted from a blend of Syrah, Cinsault, Mourvèdre, and Grenache. Fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks and aged for 10 months in underground concrete vats, this wine offers a soft, generous body. It bursts with primary fruit and freshness, revealing aromas of ripe strawberries, blackberries, and wild herbs. The palate delivers velvety tannins, a juicy core of bold red fruits, and subtle spice, leading to a long, mellow finish. This versatile red pairs beautifully with roasted meats or mature cheeses, offering remarkable value.
