Coming from the chalkiest terroirs of Bébian, the Prieuré Saint Jean de Bébian Blanc is roughly 2/3 Roussanne with the remainder of the blend being Clairette, Picpoul and Grenache Blanc. The remarkably high lime content in these soils (measured at 32%) is evidenced by this wine’s piercing minerality which underpins its rich texture. Appealing in youth, it really shines after a few years in bottle.
