Somm Note
Winemaker Notes
The Tautavel Hommage aux Vignerons boasts a beautiful, deep,garnet-red robe. Complex and powerful nose, revealing notes of scrubland, spice and ripe fruit. Vinified at a low temperature and aged in new French oak barrels for 12 months, the Grenache Noir seduces the palate with strikingly fresh notes of dark fruit. A complex wine with a beautiful structure, and rich aromas of spice, licorice and toasted bread.

Wine Enthusiast
This is a dense, concentrated and expressive wine, although it's still young and promises more beauty and elegance with age. Aromas of African violets and cocoa nibs marry harmoniously with the fleshy black-fruit core. Jammy, ripe plum and cherry flavors lead the lush and slightly creamy palate, transitioning into notes of roasted coffee and chocolate, and finally ending on a sweet toasted-oak and baking-spice accent. It's richly delicious now, but patience will also be rewarded.

Wine Spectator
A big, rich red, with touches of elegance to the well-structured flavors of dark plum, cherry tart and blackberry. Features a fresh dose of acidity, with some hints of ruby grapefruit and tangerine. Long and lush on the finish.
