1/26/2024 - ylkim30 Does not like this wine: NRJanuary 2024 Northern Rhone Dinner: Definitely the red wines' “gobbiest” of the night (GOTN): laden with a heavy-handed dark fruit, a velvety, almost viscous texture, and slightly ponderous; I wouldn’t call it a bad wine, but not one I plan to revisit. |

3/23/2024 - SAP Likes this wine: 93 pointsDomaine Roger Sabon - Chateauneuf du Pape - Reserve 2018. Deep red in color. The nose is filled with dark, ripe red and black fruits in combination with some roasted meat. Some nice pepper! The mouth got some fine tanins and has a great richness. Overall medium bodied and at the moment (for me) in an perfect state ! |

3/13/2024 - bubbachumps wrote: 93 pointsBlack raspberry, red raspberry, minerals and some leather on a very complex nose. Well integrated on the palate. This is in a fantastic place and has some life ahead of it. Slight bricking on the edge but fruit still coming through and wonderful secondary characteristics. The was a steal for $39. Ready now and easily at peak for another few years. |

For CDP, this is balanced and drinking well, I hope it stays that way for a decade. Served blind alongside a simpler Rhone, all 11 tasters preferred this. |

Excellent showing and low that funk along with gravel, earth, spices, red berries, stone and tar. Just a unique profile and very nicely balanced. Could drink the whole bottle for sure. 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (2) |

3/9/2024 - Lion's Share Likes this wine: 92 pointsRelative to the Beaucastel 2016 I tasted a few days ago, this is a lesser CDP. But it’s half the price so it definitely has value going for it. This is mostly grenache (80%), and very full bodied. Fruit and red licorice on the pretty nose. The palate is concentrated black fruit with elements of cocoa, loam and sanguine minerality. Medium finish. This will get better with further aging, but it’s very approachable right now. |

2013 Roger Sabon Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée PrestigeRed Rhone Blend more |
3/5/2024 - caesar77 Likes this wine: 93 pointsPnP. Inky purple w/ dark red edge in color. Nose of blackberries, granite, garrigue and a hint of saddle leather. On the palate: intense blackberry, cassis, baking spice and glints of black licorice. Plush tannins are just barely perceived on gums. Long finish of blackberries, vanilla, granite and subtle wood spice. Lost points due to intensity (as others called out), but this is still killer wine and good QPR. I've had multiple C-d-P's that are twice this price and not as enjoyable. |

Nice simple wine and at the price it's a nice entry-level example of CdP. I will drink up what I have left and move on..... |

1/30/2024 - Jeff Leve wrote: 92 pointsDeep red fruits, and roasted herbs take the front seat in the nose. On the palate, the wine is loaded with juicy, fresh fruits, chewy herbs, green olives, and a touch of salt. The finish has ample lift, and sweetness. The wine was produced blending 80% Grenache, 10% Mourvedre and 10% Syrah. Drink from 2024-2032. |

1/30/2024 - Jeff Leve wrote: 95 pointsOne of the wines of the vintage opens with cinnamon, flowers, apples, kirsch and spice in the aromatic profile. On the palate, the wine is creamy, soft, and filled with sweet, ripe, round, cherries, black raspberries, and strawberry nuances. Vibrant, elegant, and open, the creamy textures, and freshness is a perfect fit for all of its red fruit. The wine is produced from 95% old vine Grenache with 5% coming from various, assorted, allowable grape varieties. Drink from 2025-2035. |

2/10/2024 - sfwinelover1 Likes this wine: NRSecond of 2 (first: 5/21, 92). When I drank the first, I noted that it was early in its drinking window, and this bottle justified that call. While that one was quite nice, it skewed a bit cloying, but that’s been subsumed by forest floor, incense, funk, black tea, bitter chocolate and fig, among other notes, making for a more interesting, complex and rustic and less sweet wine. Particularly nice with a grilled pork chop and veggies one night, Indian food the next. Mid+ window now, with probably a few more good years in top form (taking in my window by 2 years). While this bottling doesn’t rank, for me, with my fave base CdPs, Close des Papes, Pegau and Beaucastel, more or less in that order, it’s reliably VG and compelling qpr. 93+ if scoring |

1/31/2024 - VAGenius Likes this wine: 91 points30 minute decant. Nose of black plum and fine cigar ash. Black fruit, dark earth, wet clay, light dried herbs, and a pronounced mineral note on the palate. Mineral note leads the finish, adding metallic notes, oily black olive, and lead over black plum fruit and oak. |
