- TASTING NOTE: This is a seriously enjoyable and complex Grenache blend - briary, dark-fruited and lush, beautifully contained within its velvety mouthfeel and structured finish.
- ABOUT THE WINE: Fruit was handpicked and destemmed before a cool, controlled fermentation. Long tank maceration of berries, approximately one month. Daily pumping overs with a slow and regular extraction of tannins. Mostly tank ageing. Bottling 8 to 9 months after harvesting.
- ABOUT THE PRODUCER: The Domaine was founded in 1952 and has grown slowly over the years with 18 hectares in Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Most of their holdings in Châteauneuf-du-Pape are located in the northeastern part of the appellation, where the soils are sandier with a high concentration of limestone. Long regarded as a reference point for this magnificent appellation of world renown, Roger Sabon is a great source of traditional Châteauneuf-du-Pape where the expression of fruit and terroir is everything and oak is treated with caution. Sabon makes wines of concentration, flesh and finesse utilising foudrés, concrete and second use barriques for elevage.
