One glorious bottle of Châteauneuf, the 2006 Roger Sabon Le Secret des Sabon is a powerhouse wine that is firing on all cylinders! Sporting jaw dropping aromatics of smoky black fruits, raspberries, exotic spice, saddle leather, and crushed flowers, the wine is full-bodied and perfectly built on the palate. Silky, polished, and with loads of ripe tannin on the finish, this is surprisingly accessible and open, yet given the balance and structure, it should have no problem evolving for 15+ years.

The inky/purple-hued, enormously endowed 2006 Chateauneuf du Pape Le Secret des Sabon is a monster of massive concentration and power. It reveals a suppleness to the tannins as well as a more evolved, accessible personality than the 2007, but, wow, it should keep for 20-25 years.

Gorgeous kirsch and mocha aromas lead the way for this silky, alluring version, loaded with raspberry ganache, fruitcake, melted red licorice and graphite notes. The long, silky finish has nice latent grip and buried minerality. Best from 2009 through 2028. 300 cases made. -JM
