From: 2019 Bordeaux from Bottle: The Two Towers (Feb 2022)
The 2019 Domaine des Sabines is plush and beautifully layered. Bright Cabernet Franc notes play off a core of black cherry fruit, blood orange, spice and mocha. Drink this succulent Lalande de Pomerol over the next decade or so.

The 2019 Domaine Des Sabines is a medium-bodied, mid-weight, yet incredibly charming and character-filled Lalande de Pomerol. Offering lots of red fruits, new saddle leather, flowery incense, and spice, it has supple tannins and the balance to keep for 7-8 years.

A Jean-Luc Thunevin wine with sweet berry fruits that are a little overpowered by the oak [...]. Overall the juicy freshness gives balance as the wine opens, and this is easy to drink with no need to wait to get going.

Reviewed By: Lisa Perrotti-Brown
Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2019 Domaine des Sabines rolls out of the glass with notions of baked plums and blackberry preserves intermingled with charcoal, raspberry leaves, tar and unsmoked cigars. Medium-bodied, the palate offers a good amount of uncomplicated black fruits with a rugged, chewy texture and just enough freshness, finishing earthy.
