Beautiful structure, this Côtes-du-Rhône develops generous notes of fresh fruit, crushed strawberry, blackberry, supported by a hint of liquorice.
On a single piece of land to the east of the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation, in the commune of Courthézon. The vines are grown without pesticides or insecticides and the manure is natural.
In 1967, Aimé Sabon came back from his military service. He took over his father’s vines, who used to take his grapes to the wine cooperative. In 1973, Aimé built his own cellar. Domaine de la Janasse was born and named after the family farm that was in Courthézon, in the locality of “La Janasse”. Aimé was ambitious. He knew he had fabulous soil and he wanted to expand the estate by acquiring new plots. From 15 hectares at the very beginning, La Janasse has now reached more than 90 hectares.
