Expert's opinions

Wine Enthusiast December - 2019
Wine Enthusiast
Buxom and heady, this is a delightfully rich, hedonistic blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre. Sun-drenched mulberry and black cherry flavors are explosive on the palate yet it's an elegantly extracted, surprisingly charming wine edged with nuances of violet, dried thyme and earth. The tannins are soft in feel, making it hard to resist young, but there's plenty of time for improvement here too.

Deeply colored, this is incredibly concentrated. The wine is fleshy, silky and palate staining. The fruit coats your palate, but it's never heavy, or overblown. Instead, everything is in balance. The richly textured wine has polish, length and purity, along with a sexy style and a finish that you cannot stop tasting, staying with you for over 50 seconds!

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
Time will tell if this wine equals the stellar 2015; it's certainly very close in quality. The 2016 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Vieilles Vignes is a blend of approximately 75% Grenache, 12% Mourvèdre, 8% Syrah and the rest other permitted varieties. Tarry and deep on the nose, it delivers waves of blackberries and black cherries on the palate, framing those flavors with plenty of richness, layers of silky tannins and a long, elegant finish.

This is packed with plum, raspberry and blackberry confiture flavors that are youthfully wound up, while warm stone, anise, bay leaf, garrigue and tar notes fill in throughout. Dense but juicy, with a long, smoldering feel on the finish.

Coup de coeur Guide vert 2019 A beautiful definition on black fruit, cocoa and spices. A touch of charcoal gives it freshness, behind the ripeness. The palate shows concentration while maintaining a notable body.

5% Grenache, 10% Syrah, 5% Mourvèdre. Cask sample. Deep purple colour with dense fruit on the nose and palate that isn't as well defined and juicy as some. There's some floral lift to give complexity, but you'd hope the best is still to come in terms of flavour. Supple tannic grip, moderate intensity.

Château Domaine de La Janasse
Domaine de La Janasse

The Domaine de la Janasse was created 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.

In 20 years, the estate has continued to progress 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 but complementary terroirs 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-ripening as it is located in the north of the appellation, which brings structure and body; and finally, a sandy-limestone hillside that provides finesse). The grape clusters showed extraordinary concentration with well-ripened skins that, like on the Chaupin terroir, fully benefited from the optimal September conditions.
