Domaine de La Janasse

Domaine de La Janasse

Domaine de la Janasse is a wine estate in the Rhône, established in 1973 by Aimé Sabon. La Janasse is the name of the family farm located in Courthézon in the Vaucluse department. This estate is undoubtedly one of the notable references in the Rhône Valley. The estate produces wines under three different appellations: Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Côtes du Rhône and IGP. However, it is in the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation that Domaine de la Janasse stands out. In this appellation, the estate mainly produces red wines but also whites: a classic white and a tradition cuvée. In red, the Chaupin, Reservé and Vieilles vignes cuvées have built the estate's reputation.

Over 20 years, the estate has continuously improved and offers excellent country wines as well as beautiful Côtes du Rhône and Châteauneuf-du-Pape cuvées. The success of this estate is a family achievement as the entire Sabon family is invested in it. Domaine de la Janasse Vieilles Vignes 2008 is a cuvée from four plots located on different terroirs that complement each other in the blend (a "southern" terroir composed of rolled pebbles that brings richness and power; a terroir located in the same place as Chaupin for freshness and acidity; a terroir of red clay covered with rolled pebbles but very late as it is located in the north of the appellation, which brings structure and body; and finally a sandy-limestone hillside that gives finesse). The grape clusters showed extraordinary concentration with well-ripened skins which, like on the Chaupin terroir, fully benefited from the optimal conditions in September.
