"The first vintage for the cuvee, the stunning 2012 Lirac la Plume du Peintre offers incredible notes of crème de cassis, black raspberries, toasted bread, graphite and spice. Full-bodied, voluptuous and sexy with low acidity, a plush, mouth-filling texture and gobs of sweet tannin, it’s a blockbuster Lirac to drink anytime over the coming decade. - Jeb Dunnuck"
