The 2019 Hommage à nos Pairs Reserve is a finished barrel sample of co-fermented Grenache and Viognier, due to be bottled in August 2021. Deep ruby-purple, it is scented of cassis and blueberries with accents of tar, violets, turned earth and coffee beans. The palate is full-bodied but manages loads of freshness and lift, with intense, perfumed fruits and an uplifted finish.
