Red Rhone Wine

2008 Lirac Grenache Noir, Mourvedre

The Domaine Pelaquie Red Rhone Wine, crafted from a blend of Grenache Noir and Mourvèdre, showcases the vibrant and complex character typical of the Lirac region. This 2008 vintage presents a deep, enticing red color that hints at the depth of flavor within. The wine reveals a beautifully balanced profile, with a medium body that allows for both richness and approachability. Bright acidity adds a refreshing lift, complementing the prominent fruit intensity that features notes of cherry and plum, alongside subtle hints of spice and earth. Tannins are soft and refined, providing just enough structure to support the lively fruit, while the wine remains dry, making it an excellent choice for a range of occasions or simply to enjoy on its own. This wine exemplifies the elegance and complexity of the Southern Rhône, inviting you to indulge in its layered flavors with each sip.
