Even more packed with fruit and overall intensity than the Cuvée Mon Aieul, the 2019 Chateauneuf du Pape Reserve des 2 Freres is also all whole-cluster Grenache, but matured in 300-liter barrels, approximately 20% new. Smoky and herbal on the nose, it's also richly fruited, with a never-ending stream of black cherries. Full-bodied, velvety and plush, it's a hugely intense, hedonistic expression of Grenache and Chateauneuf du Pape.
