The estate and the wine |
|
|
With 3 stars from the Guide des meilleurs Vins de France, Clos du Mont-Olivet is one of the most coveted estates in the Southern Rhône Valley. Based in Châteauneuf-du-Pape and managed by the Sabon family, the estate benefits from a unique mix of soils—clay, quartz, and stones—that give their wines extraordinary aging potential. These are wines of remarkable finesse and elegance, designed to develop beautifully over time. |

The 2022 Red Côtes du Rhône Vieilles Vignes opens with an elegant, rose-scented bouquet, offering subtlety and freshness. Despite the ripeness of the vintage, the wine shows the estate’s craftsmanship beautifully. Its balance is spot on, with fine, almost silky tannins and a vibrant, ripe structure that makes it a real pleasure to drink. Perfect to enjoy now and over the next 3 years. Scored 91/100 by the Selection Committee. |
