The Lirac Blanc from Chateau d'Aqueria represents an elegant and refined expression of the white wines from the Rhône Valley. Distinctive for its harmonious blend of Grenache Blanc, Clairette, and Bourboulenc, this wine offers a perfect balance between freshness and complexity. On the nose, it opens with enticing aromas of white flowers, citrus, and hints of peach, while a subtle touch of minerality further enriches the bouquet.

On the palate, the Lirac Blanc is vibrant and fresh, with a medium structure and notable persistence. Its texture is creamy but never heavy, highlighting a well-balanced acidity that leads to a clean and invigorating finish. This wine pairs splendidly with dishes based on fish, seafood, and poultry, and it is also an excellent match for vegetarian dishes flavored with fresh herbs.

Adorned with a beautiful straw yellow hue, the Lirac Blanc from Chateau d'Aqueria is a wine that enchants both the palate and the eye, promising to evolve magnificently with a few years of bottle aging. A must for lovers of quality white wines.

Winery history
The property's documented origins date back to 1595, when Louis Joseph d'Aqueria purchased the land known as "Puy Sablonneux." Over the centuries the estate passed through several families; in the 20th century it was acquired by the Olivier/de Bez family, who led it for generations. In May 2022 the Guigal family acquired Château d'Aqueria, stating their intention to preserve the site's history and to further develop the wines of the Tavel and Lirac appellations.
Production philosophy
A strong focus on the value of the terroir and on environmental protection: the estate implements agricultural practices aimed at conserving biodiversity and holds HVE certification. Vineyard work prioritizes hand-harvesting and vinification methods designed to highlight the typicity of Tavel and Lirac.
Terroir and vineyards
The domaine is located in the Tavel and Lirac area of the southern Rhône Valley. Soils range from clay-sandy around the castle to calcareous and gravelly on the terraces; these differences allow the production of both the renowned Tavel rosé and the Lirac red and white wines.
