Domaine Roger Sabon

The Sabon family is an ancient and well-regarded name in Châteauneuf-du-Pape first mentioned in documents dating to 1540. However, the domaine Roger Sabon was founded in 1952.

The size of the domaine has grown slowly over the years with 18 hectares in Chateauneuf du Pape, 8 hectares in Lirac and 8 hectares in Côtes-du-Rhône.

They own a  few parcels in Le Crau famous for its red clay under a deep layer of galets deposited from the alps eons ago.

Their oldest vines, topping 100 years old, are located in two plots near Courthézon, and are the source for the Secret des Sabon.
