    Robert Parker

    Yohan Castaing

    The 2024 Lirac Blanc La Reine des Bois is more tensile than usual, wafting from the glass with aromas of spring blossoms, white lilac, almonds and honeysuckle. Medium- to full-bodied, satiny and layered, it's racy and saline, with an enveloping core of fruit and a long, chalky finish. Crafted from vines planted on galets roulés and calcareous soils, this is a blend of undisclosed proportions of Grenache Blanc, Viognier and Clairette with a touch of Marsanne and Roussanne.

    Decanter

    White flowers and candied citrus peels on the nose. Full-bodied, fresh and generous, with good supporting acidity – really quite vibrant acids, which makes for a well-balanced style.

    Description

After Christophe's death in 2015, his widow Madeleine Delorme and their daughter Ambre now run the estate. The domaine has stood out for its organic and biodynamic practices since 2020, as well as for its cuvées with poetic names inspired by nature.
