Roquedon

2006 Lirac Grenache Noir, Syrah, Mourvedre

Alain Jaume Roquedon is a remarkable red wine that beautifully illustrates the terroir of the Lirac region. This vintage showcases a harmonious blend of Grenache Noir, Syrah, and Mourvèdre, resulting in a wine that is full-bodied with a delightful richness. The acidity is vibrant, enhancing the overall freshness and liveliness of the wine, making it incredibly food-friendly. With prominent fruit intensity, expect enchanting layers of dark berries and ripe plum, accompanied by subtle spice undertones. The tannins are notably structured, providing a solid backbone, while the wine remains dry, allowing its complex character to shine forth impressively. This gem from Lirac truly highlights the region's potential and craftsmanship.
