The estate and the wine |
|
|
The Roger Sabon estate has plots of land scattered all over the Châteauneuf-du-Pape area, with a preference for the dominant and flamboyant Grenache grape variety. Solidly anchored on this flagship Rhone terroir, the estate crafts delicate and refined wines that perfectly transcribe the energy and soul of the region’s soil. |

Rated 94+/100 Parker and 17.5/20 by our Selection Committee, the 2017 Red Prestige Châteauneuf-du-Pape is a resounding success. It is an intense, deep wine with smoky, blackberry jam and spice notes. Powerful and harmonious, the wine combines elegance and generosity; the whole remains beautifully fresh, carried by great tension and minerality. It is without a doubt a very beautiful bottle, to be enjoyed at once! |
