The village of Lirac sits on the “rive droite,” or right banks of the Rhone river, due west from Chateauneuf-du-Pape. The ‘Marie Jausset’ is an hommage to the fondatrice of the family domaine, the great-grandmother of winemaker Thierry Sabon, who inherited vines in Chateauneuf that would become Clos du Mont-Olivet. Here Thierry selects the best parcels from new holdings in Lirac, near Saint Laurent des Arbres and Saint-Genies de Comolas, with terroir rich in sand and quartz stone. A blend of Cinsault, Grenache and Mourvedre.
