A silky and superb Rhone Red made by the famous Sabon family. This classic Grenache-led offering has a perfect balance of vibrant fruit and satisfying full-body. The Janasse label has an impeccable reputation for quality, and this favourite red is both classic and classy.
This impeccably run estate, in the capable hands of Christophe Sabon, his sister Isabelle, and their father, is one of the superstars of the southern Rhone Valley. Over the last 15+ years, the quality of the wines has gone from strength to strength, with brilliant wines being produced in all price categories. They make sumptuous, complex, world-class red, white and rose Cotes du Rhones, and year-in and year-out, their Chateauneuf du Papes are amongst the top wines of the vintage.
Winery notes (2022 Vintage)
"Attractive black plum in colour. The nose offers gobs of jammy black fruits intermixed with a delicious spiciness. The body is equally full, vibrant and concentrated. A well structured, well made wine all round."
90/100 James Suckling (2022 Vintage)
"Plenty of cherries, wild berries, cassis and Mediterranean herbs on the nose. Medium body with velvety tannins. Juicy fruit in the centre with a crunchy character at the finish. Drink now on."
