Wine Description
Clos du Mont Olivet Lirac comes from vines located in Saint Laurent des Arbres on the right bank of the Rhône Valley. The terroir is rich in sand, red silica and rounded pebbles, giving it finesse and depth. Winemaking is entirely carried out in concrete vats, and ageing is divided into 4 parts: 45% in foudre, 40% in concrete, 13% in stainless steel vats and 2% in barrels.
Philippe Mischler, sommelier at Mundovin : The Lirac cuvée produced by the Clos du Mont Olivet wine estate is made from 70% Grenache, 15% Syrah, 10% Mourvèdre and 5% Cinsault. Some call it "the other Châteauneuf", such is its complexity and ageing potential.
On the nose, bewitching aromas of ripe red and black fruits intertwine with delicate spice notes and a subtle hint of garrigue.
On the palate, the experience is one of rare elegance. The tannic structure is powerful, with rich black fruit flavors. The balance between acidity, substance and alcohol is perfect. The lingering finish reveals the grandeur of this superb terroir wine.
