Discover Domaine de la Janasse

Domaine de la Janasse, located in Courthézon within the heart of the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation, is one of the most renowned estates in the Rhône Valley. Founded in 1973 by Aimé Sabon, the domaine is now managed by his children, Christophe and Isabelle Sabon, who have elevated its reputation as a key reference in the region through their dedication to quality and terroir expression.

Terroir and Characteristics

The vineyard spans around 90 hectares, distributed across Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Côtes-du-Rhône, and neighboring appellations. The vines, averaging 40 to 60 years old, grow on a mosaic of soils consisting of rolled pebbles, sands, and clays. This diverse terroir contributes to complex and distinctive wines.
