Score 93/100 · Drink 2014-2024, Jeb Dunnuck, Wine Advocate, Jan 2015

Even better, and a smoking Lirac that vies for the top wine of the appellation, the 2012 Lirac La Reine des Bois has gorgeous crème de cassis, licorice, pan drippings, wood spice and hints of graphite. Offering knockout purity, full-bodied richness and ultra-fine tannin, it tastes like a top flight Chateauneuf and will drink nicely for over a decade.

Grenache, Clairette, Roussanne, Marsanne, Viognier, Picpoul. Serviceable and solid. Green edge to this wine. Correct but not thrilling. But a bit drier and fresher than most southern Rhône 2012 whites. (JR)
