Description
Separated from Châteauneuf-du-Pape by the river, Lirac is one of the crus in the Rhône valley that can produce all three colours: red, rosé and white. Characteristic soils are made up of terraces covered in “galets roulés”, the pudding stone more commonly associated with Châteauneuf-du-Pape, a result of the miniature landslides that occur on the slopes. Grape varieties grown here show their typical characteristics.
