Domaine des Sabines - Lalande-de-Pomerol - Red - 2023 :

 

The Right Bank Revelation: Domaine des Sabines, Crafted by Thunevin

The Domaine des Sabines is an elegant, concentrated Right Bank red, a boutique project overseen by Bordeaux luminary, Jean-Luc Thunevin. Situated just across the Barbanne stream from Pomerol, this wine delivers the plush, Merlot-dominant character of the region but with the signature precision and luxurious oak influence of the Thunevin style.

Tasting Notes

• Colour: A deep, vibrant garnet.
• Nose: Rich and evocative, featuring intense black fruit, wild berries, and forest floor complexity, complemented by fine notes of vanilla pod and cedar from meticulous oak ageing.
• Palate: Smooth and full-bodied, with a generous mid-palate and a velvety mouthfeel. The tannins are fine-grained and soft, leading to a persistent, beautifully balanced finish that speaks of its noble terroir.

Food Matching & Serving

A wine of this calibre is perfect for a special occasion. Best served at 16-18°C. Pair with traditional British roasts or game. Young vintages will benefit from a short decant.
