  Domaine 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 !
  
  Love this Domaine an can't wait to be there in June :-)
  
  Cheers !

  90 Dec 2022 👃 shy, dried strawberry, faint rubber, barnyard. 👅 Not a ton of fruit at first, but a nice wave of black cherry and ribena follows in a minute. I think I get some French oak, some cinnamon. A seemingly light and elegant wine but it probably needs decant time or a few years in the cellar. Good and will get better.

  The spicy red cherry notes stand out here. Medium-bodied with soft, silky textures, and sweetness to the fruits, here you find a forward approach. In fact, this luscious, fruit-filled wine will be just great on release and should even better with age.
