2024 Prieuré Saint-Jean de Bebian Le Rec 750ml

Prieuré Saint-Jean de Bébian is one of the most storied estates in the Languedoc, founded by Benedictine monks in 1152 in Pézenas. Its modern era began in 1960 when the owner extended plantings with cuttings from legendary neighbors — Syrah from Gérard Chave, Grenache from Jacques Reynaud, and Mourvèdre from the Peyraud family — and the estate is now farmed biodynamically on terroir recognized among the top tier of the Languedoc’s new classification system.

Le Rec is a single-vineyard, 100% Cinsault from a steep parcel of flint- and quartz-rich fluvial soil, made through three weeks of infusion and aged twelve months in demi-muids. The wine opens with subtle red fruit, delivering a velvety, refined palate that can be enjoyed young or cellared for up to fifteen years.

With vine material sourced from some of France’s most legendary growers and terroir classified among the Languedoc’s finest, this bottle offers real collector appeal well beyond typical regional pricing. Its rarity as a single-varietal Cinsault bottling adds further distinction.

A compelling find for collectors of serious southern French wine and anyone building a cellar around the Languedoc’s most historic estates.
