The 2017 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Domaine Roger Sabon Cuvée Prestige is a masterclass in Southern Rhône winemaking, earning a remarkable 96 points from both the International Wine Report and Jeb Dunnuck. This wine captivates with its rich tapestry of flavors, showcasing ripe dark fruits, hints of garrigue, and a subtle peppery spice that dances across the palate. The complexity is beautifully balanced by a velvety texture and a long, harmonious finish. Ideal for a cozy dinner featuring herb-crusted lamb or a robust mushroom risotto, this cuvée delivers exceptional quality that feels like a true value find, especially given its original retail price of $110.
