In a few words ...
A Côtes du Rhône cru since 1947, Lirac has a long history. It is one of the few crus to be produced in three colors. Since the Middle Ages, this vineyard has been recognized as a producer and creator of top-quality wines. Lirac is a Cru that combines elegance with astonishing structure and richness. Its refined power makes it the jewel in the crown of Rhone vineyards. Lirac, an old French appellation (1947), is one of the 16 crus of the Côtes-du-Rhône. A good opportunity to discover a sure value.

Les Vignerons de Tavel & Lirac
Les Vignerons de Tavel & Lirac is a domain from the region Vallée du Rhône in France, that produces 17 wines available to purchase, including the wine Cuvée Jean XXII 2021.
Appellation
Lirac
The appellation Lirac is part of the region of Vallée du Rhône from France which include Les Vignerons de Tavel & Lirac and its 17 cuvées. Spread over The Rhone Valley and its rich, complex terroirs. The region is divided into two distinct subregions: Northern Rhone (known as Rhône Septentrional) and Southern Rhone (Rhône Méridional). In the former we find strong wines in beautiful colours with warm, spicy notes, produced by vineyards that stretch 4,700 ha along the Rhone. The latter, with an area of 71,000 ha, is much more important, and this is evident of course in its annual production of red, rosé and white wines quite unlike those of the Northern Rhone., this region is 3 million hectolitres per year of red wines, rosés, dry and sparkling white wines, and natural sweet wine..
