He took over his father’s vines, who used to take his grapes to the wine cooperative. In 1973, Aimé built his own cellar. Domaine de la Janasse was born and named after the family farm that was in Courthézon, in the locality of “La Janasse”. Aimé was ambitious. He knew he had fabulous soil and he wanted to expand the estate by acquiring new plots. From 15 hectares at the very beginning, La Janasse has now reached more than 90 hectares.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom father to children\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1991, after a technical diploma in viticulture and oenology in Beaune, and another one in marketing in Mâcon, Christophe Sabon –Aimé’s eldest son– came back to La Janasse where he was given the keys to the cellar. From then different cuvees were developed, new markets conquered. In 2001, Isabelle –Aimé’s daughter– graduated as an oenologist from the University of Toulouse, and joined the team. With Hélène, Aimé’s wife, the family was reunited again in La Janasse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"domaine-de-la-janasse-chateauneuf-du-pape-cuvee-vieilles-vignes-2020","title":"Domaine de la Janasse Chateauneuf-du-Pape Cuvee Vieilles Vignes 2020","description":"\u003cp\u003eDomaine de la Janasse Chateauneuf-du-Pape Cuvee Vieilles Vignes is made from 65% Grenache, 20% Mourvdre, 10% Syrah, 5% ers. In contrast to Chaupin, which is made from old-vine Grenache on sandy soils, the cuve Vieilles Vignes is from old vines of Grenache, Mourvedre, Syrah along with smaller percentages of other permitted varieties that are grown in these old vineyards. The wine is sourced from 4 terroirs: pebbly clay, sand, gravelly red clay and sandy limestone. Vieilles Vignes is always the most powerful and concentrated Chteauneuf-du-Pape cuve made at Domaine de la Janasse. Review: The 2020 Chteauneuf Du Pape Vieilles Vignes also saw some stems (the estate started keeping some stems with the 2016 vintage) and was 75% destemmed, with the blend being 70% Grenache, 20% Mourvdre, and the rest Syrah, Cinsault, and Terret Noir. As usual, it's a more powerful, black-fruited wine comparted to the Cuve Chaupin and has lots of crme de cassis, liquid violet, crushed stone, woodsmoke, and peppery herbs. It displays the vintage's purity and freshness yet brings the concentration as well as the structure. I'll be shocked if it's not in the handful of top wines in the vintage. 96-\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"La Janasse","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44949158330415,"sku":"449625","price":125.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/4677\/5087\/files\/janassevvbtl.jpg?v=1771490329"},{"product_id":"domaine-de-la-janasse-chateauneuf-du-pape-cuvee-vieilles-vignes-2021","title":"Domaine de la Janasse Chateauneuf-du-Pape Cuvee Vieilles Vignes 2021","description":"\u003cp\u003eDomaine de la Janasse Chateauneuf-du-Pape Cuvee Vieilles Vignes is made from 65% Grenache, 20% Mourvdre, 10% Syrah, 5% ers.

Review: The advantages of old vines are perhaps most evident in the more difficult vintages (whether hot and dry or cool and rainy). The 2021 Chateauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes is a effort, delivering supple, velvety waves of ripe black cherries and black raspberries. Medium to full-bodied, it's rich and concentrated without seeming at all heavy or unbalanced, finishing long and juicy. It's approximately 75% Grenache, 15% Mourvdre, 5% Syrah and 5% other varieties, keeping in mind that up to 15% of the old Grenache vines are actually Clairette Rose.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"La Janasse","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44949250015279,"sku":"451469","price":90.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/4677\/5087\/files\/janassevvbtl_e51ce145-1e80-41b5-8e5c-a4c31b88a4e7.jpg?v=1771492170"}],"url":"https:\/\/timelesswinesdirect.com\/collections\/wineries-la-janasse.oembed","provider":"timelesswines.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
