Introduction:
The 2022 Clos St. Antonin Côtes du Rhône is a beautifully balanced wine from the Southern Rhône, crafted by the Sabon family, known for their exceptional Châteauneuf-du-Pape wines. With a blend of traditional Rhône varietals, this Côtes du Rhône offers exceptional value and quality, showcasing the rich fruit and complexity of the appellation.

Tasting note:
A blend of 80% grenache, 10% syrah, and 10% mourvèdre sourced from the Sabon's (practicing) organic estate, the 2022 Clos St. Antonin Côtes du Rhône presents an opportunity to experience the fruit of the family's immense gifts (of both their land and their talents) for short money and will have you looking for more of their wines. It has aromas of raspberries, black cherries, and cassis that follow on the medium- to full-bodied palate. The ripe fruit flavors are laced with notes of tobacco, licorice, and Mediterranean herbs. Pliant, well-integrated tannins lend structure without detracting from the wine’s silky-smooth texture. Lively acidity brings it to a long finish.
