" A superb offering and probably the best vintage of this cuvee I have tasted, the 2010 Roger Sabon Châteauneuf-du-Pape Les Olivets (70% Grenache, 15% Syrah, and 15% Cinsault aged for 18 months in larger oak tanks) has knockout aromatics of sweet blackberry and spiced-cherry styled fruits intermixed with notions of licorice, herbs meat, and loamy earth. It is medium-bodied, beautifully fruited, and textured, with excellent structure as well as notable acidity and freshness."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Spans the Syrah-driven northern crus of Cote-Rotie and Hermitage and the Grenache-based blends of the warmer south, led by Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Its wines are known for power, spice and warmth.
The southern Rhone's most famous appellation, blending Grenache with Syrah, Mourvedre and more into rich, warming, spice-laden reds from galet-strewn soils.
