Montfaucon Baron Louis Lirac Rouge - 2018 (750ml) Margaret River black olive and this bottle"Theres a touch of pepper and juniper here, its full bodied, very savoury style. The tannins are just ripe and its well balanced with a long finish there's tension and power here rather than concentration of fruit, and it will take a while to really reveal itself. This will be one of the longer lasting Liracs of the vintage. A blend of Grenache Noir (50%), Cinsault (15%), Syrah (15%), Carignan (10%), Mourvdre (10%). Hand harvested, destemmed. 80%
