{"product_id":"prieure-st-jean-de-bebian-blanc-2021","title":"Prieuré St Jean de Bebian Blanc","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is southern French white wine with remarkable poise. Roussanne and Vermentino bring together ripe orchard fruit, preserved lemon, white flowers, and a beautiful salty mineral streak. Richly textured without ever feeling heavy, it finishes long, fresh, and incredibly elegant. Long fermentation in old cask and 36 months aged on lees.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrieuré Saint Jean de Bébian\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBenoît Pontenier has been at the helm of Prieuré Saint Jean de Bébian since 2015, breathing new energy into the iconic Languedoc estate. With guidance from the legendary Jean-François Ganevat, \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eBenoît is letting the land speak for itself, and every choice is made with nature in mind. Organic, biodynamic, and with a focus on healthy, ripe fruit—Benoît’s approach is all about purity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe estate has a storied past—from its roots in the first century CE when it was gifted to a Roman centurion, Bébianus, as a reward for his battle exploits, to the 1970s when Alain Roux planted Syrah from Domaine Chave, Mourvèdre from Tempier, and Grenache from Château Rayas. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe resulting wines have a remarkable energy, with complexity that invites contemplation as well as freshness that invites you back for another sip. “I attach tremendous importance to the finish of a wine,” Benoît tells us. “It’s fundamental–it’s what you remember, like the end of a book or a film. I hope that people have this sensation of vibration or salivation when they taste a very good wine without artifice. Once you know this feeling, it’s very difficult to go back to more boxed-in wines.”\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Prieuré Saint Jean de Bébian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55429958369571,"sku":null,"price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0586\/4226\/8358\/files\/B1D44FED-6B94-4FDA-BFEC-334650F96F89.jpg?v=1786997598","url":"https:\/\/terroirizer.wine\/products\/prieure-st-jean-de-bebian-blanc-2021","provider":"Terroirizer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
