Roger Sabon

Founded in 1952 by Roger Sabon, several generations later, the estate has reached a total surface of 50 hectares split over both sides of the Rhône. 18 hectares belong to the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation, on the left bank, the rest of the hectares fall into Lirac, Côtes-du-Rhône and Vin de France on the right bank. The diversity of the plots allows them to produce a wide choice of wines with varied profiles.

Southern Rhone

The Southern Rhône, a renowned wine region in southeastern France, is celebrated for its diverse and robust wines. Benefiting from a Mediterranean climate with hot summers and mild winters, it is ideal for viticulture. The Southern Rhône is famous for its blends, particularly from Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre, producing rich, full-bodied reds with complex flavours of dark fruit, spices, and herbs. Châteauneuf-du-Pape is the most prestigious appellation, known for its powerful and age-worthy wines. It also excels in producing aromatic whites and refreshing rosés. With its varied terroir and traditional winemaking techniques, the Southern Rhône offers a captivating wine experience for enthusiasts seeking high-quality and flavourful wines.
