Decanter Magazine Review
Rated 91
Very well balanced, this is a richer, riper style of Sablet, but it still has the fine-sand texture and fresh tannins, and good length of fruit. The alcohol is slightly warming on the finish, but this has lots of southern Rhône warmth and charm. Drinking Window: 2025-2028.
