“A fine expression of the estate’s vineyards, the 2017 Lirac Charles 1er offers charming aromas of raspberry and strawberry. It is full-bodied and silky, with notes of licorice, dried spices, and black cherries on the palate, then firms up on the finish—enough to suggestit will still be excellent in 10 years.”(Wine Advocate - Joe Czerwinski)
