  "Notes of cooked blueberries and liquorice on the nose. This has great palate weight and density, it’s so savoury. The tannins are really searching, and the acidity is driving. A big tannic seat, and a lovely sense of vibrancy and freshness to the fruit. This has enormous presence, it's a big, powerful, dense vintage of Hommage that will age for a very long time. Around 60% of the blend comes from old-vine Mourvèdre from the Courrieux vineyard. Grapes are destemmed, fermented in tronconic wooden vats using natural yeasts after a brief cold maceration, with regular punching down."

  "Cask sample. Just wow on the nose – such intense dark fruits, pastille fruits and sweet spice, tobacco, meat and blackcurrant. The attack is dense and deeply concentrated, with sweet pastille fruit, such suave tannins, incredible concentration and ripe, sweet, layered liquorice, mulberry, cassis and leather, as well as black tea, lavender and garrigue. There is an underpinning salinity beneath that lifts the finish. Hugely dense and concentrated. Superb."
