Lirac la Reine des Bois Blanc 2021
Tasted blind. Really juicy and inviting aromas of biltong, violet and crushed blackberries. A taut palate with good fresh acidity throughout. The fruit shows good concentration – fig, pastille notes and blackberry with detailed (but firm) tannins. Well-structured with an attractive purity of fruit.
