  • 1990 Roger Sabon Châteauneuf-du-Pape Le Secret des Sabon 96 Points

    France, Rhône, Southern Rhône, Châteauneuf-du-Pape

    Quite complex nose that is packed with impressions like dark strawberry/raspberry, ink, chemicals and sweet red bell-pepper.
    Compact fruit on the Kirsch like palate with a little manure and harsh tannins. A little rubber and ammonia in the aftertaste.
    The acidity is still quite fresh but overall the wine seems a bit rough. 96p+
