About the estate:
For three generations, the Domaine des Pasquiers has been producing Côtes-du-Rhône, Côtes-du-Rhône-Villages Plan-de-Dieu, and Gigondas wines. The Plan-de-Dieu terroir consists primarily of red clay covered with rounded pebbles, while Gigondas lies close to the famous Dentelles de Montmirail. The winemaking and aging processes emphasize gentle extraction and well-integrated oak. The range is well-defined, and each vintage offers a superb balance.

Review by Mr. MATHIEU W. Posted on 02/13/2025
Dark ruby color with a purple core. On the nose, sultry and sun-kissed dark and red fruit—blackberries, blackcurrants, cherries. Herbs and spices. On the palate, it mirrors the nose: licorice, body, soft, fine-grained tannins, chocolate, freshness, and length. In short, a wine that is perfectly balanced. A pleasure to have in your glass. Aging potential. Score: 16+/20

Review by Mr. Gilles D. Published on August 5, 2024
With a warm, almost rich, and distinctly characterful profile, this Sablet displays great body and a definite density, dominated by spices and black pepper in general, and cooked red berries in particular, with hints of garrigue aromas. The whole is underpinned by robust tannins, still young but well-ripened and silky. The abundance of spices comes to the fore to round out the tasting experience. Simple without being simplistic, this approachable and affordable Sablet will be ready to enjoy after about a year of additional aging to allow it to fully meld. For the impatient among us—myself included—it was enjoyed today, after aeration, with a homemade dish of melt-in-your-mouth beef lasagna, sprinkled with Parmesan. Rating = 3.8.
