Attachment  
Bulletin Untitled Page

Only a few six-bottle cases of the 2006 Les Olivets Chateauneuf du Pape and 2007 Lirac from Domaine Roger Sabon (www.roger-sabon.com) remain. Robert Parker cited this winery as one of the world's top 50. We will take our order to the LCBO on Wednesday, May 28.

2007 Lirac "Chapelle de Maillac" - 15.0% Alc. By Vol.                 $33.00
Robert Parker notes that Domaine Roger Sabon is one of only five "Excellent" Lirac producers. He goes on to say, "A sleepy village next to Tavel, Lirac appears to be emerging from the shadows of oblivion. More and more of the top estates are producing better and better wines." My notes … magenta in colour, an awesome nose of sweet raspberries and perfume and a hint of pepper, amazing, wonderful in the mouth, very long with a beautiful smooth tannic structure. Only one case remains. Please order now. 

2006  Châteauneuf du Pape les Olivets - 14.5% Alc. By Vol.       $46.00
Robert Parker says, "The 2006 Châteauneuf du Pape Les Olivets reveals impressive ripeness, with classic Provencal notes of toasted herbs, licorice, pepper, and kirsch liqueur. It is medium-bodied, soft, spicy and ideal for drinking over the next 6-10 years. Rating (89-91) Drink 2007 - 2017."

Stephen Tanzer rated it 91-93. Only eleven cases remain. Order yours now.

The above prices include a $1 per bottle handling fee.

Please pass this note on to anyone you think would be interested in the superb wines from Domaine Roger Sabon.

Many thanks and cheers,
