In memoriam: Thierry Sabon
Hospice du Rhône is deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Thierry Sabon of Clos Du Mont Olivet.
A respected and acclaimed winemaker in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Thierry was a champion of his appellation and its historic old vines. His wines carried the character and history of the region he loved.
We were honored to welcome him to Hospice du Rhône Walla Walla in 2024, where he shared his wines as a seminar presenter for ‘Châteauneuf-du-Pape: Limitless Style with Authenticity’, moderated by Jeb Dunnuck, alongside his colleagues from Domaine de Marcoux and Domaine de Vieux Télégraphe.
Our thoughts are with his family, friends, and everyone at Clos du Mont-Olivet during this time.
