List of products by brand Domaine de la Janasse

Founded in 1973 by Aimé Sabon in Courthézon, Domaine de la Janasse has become an icon of Châteauneuf-du-Pape within just a few decades. Now led by his children, Christophe and Isabelle Sabon, the estate spans over 90 hectares of an exceptional mosaic of terroirs. Renowned for its top-tier cuvées (Chaupin, Vieilles Vignes), La Janasse combines a perfect mastery of Grenache ripeness with winemaking that prioritizes balance and depth. From approachable Côtes-du-Rhône to Châteauneuf-du-Pape built for long aging, each wine expresses the sun-drenched richness of the Rhône with remarkable elegance and technical precision.

Plot-by-Plot Excellence in the Southern Rhône

The success of La Janasse is built on a puzzle of more than 60 plots across the appellation’s finest sectors (La Crau, Chaupin). This diversity allows the estate to craft wines of rare complexity.

The pillars of La Janasse expertise:

  • Mastery of Grenache: The estate's flagship grape is elevated across varied terroirs (sands for the Chaupin cuvée, rolled pebbles for the Vieilles Vignes), offering textures ranging from the finest silk to the richest density.

  • Sustainable Viticulture: While not officially certified, the estate works its soils without herbicides or chemical pesticides, favoring plowing and natural fertilizers to promote terroir expression.

  • The Sabon Style: Christophe Sabon is a master of winemaking. He seeks optimal extraction of aromas and tannins (partial destemming, gentle punching down) to create powerful yet digestible wines, marked by brilliant fruit purity.
