Domaine Giraud Cotes du Rhone 'Les Sables d'Arene' Vieilles Vignes Rouge, Rhone, France 2020 Case (6x750ml) Meat sauces & ragù Silky textureThe 2020 Lirac Les Sables D'Arene comes all from sandy soils on the Right Bank of the Rhne and is 60% Grenache, 20% Syrah, and 20% Mourvedre. Red, blue, and black fruits all define the nose, and it has good complexity with more loamy earth, spice, herbes de Provence, and violet nuances developing with air. Medium to full bodied, round, supple, and wonderfully textured, it's going to shine for 7 8 years. 91 Pts Jeb Dunnuck
