Awards and/or Press Quotes
Decanter 94 Points Quite an expressive fragrant nose, touches of violets with blackberries and some cocoa dusting. Heady and evocative. Lovely rich texture on the palate, softly gripping tannins with bright black cherry and blackcurrant fruit flavours given lift by high acidity and weight by a softly chalky texture. Nice density overall with a spicy liquorice edge to the mid palate and on the finish alongside a cooling, minty aspect which gives a lifted ending. Characterful with personality and persistence. Good to drink, though still delightfully youthful, will age well. Good quality, elegant and polished - a nice buy from the appellation.
Vinous Media 91 Points The 2016 Domaine des Sabines is silky and understated, with attractive floral notes that lift the red cherry, blood orange and mint flavors. Creamy tannins and layered fruit add to the wine's considerable near and medium term appeal. This is a very pretty delicious Lalande de Pomerol from Jean-Luc Thunevin and Murielle Andraud.
