Domaine De La Janasse

About Domaine De La Janasse

In 1967, Aimé Sabon came back from his military service. 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”. From 15 hectares at the very beginning, La Janasse has now reached more than 90 hectares.

In 1991, Christophe Sabon –Aimé’s eldest son– came back to La Janasse where he was given the keys to the cellar. 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.
