Elaboration

The history of Saint Prefert began more than a century ago, in 1920. The soils of Saint Préfert are stony, porous, aerated, and filtering. This permits the vines to root deeply into the blue clay layer that forms the distant bed of the Rhône river. This blue clay is what makes magic happen in the soils of this winery. That's what gives their wines a specific richness, making them singular and unique.Beatus Ille is mostly Grenache blended with about 15% Cinsault from two parcels, La Lionne, in the Sorgues district, just at the southern border of Chateauneuf-du-Pape and another parcel in Vedène. It's blended with a bit of Syrah from Châteauneuf-du-Pape. It's 100% destemmed and fermented and aged in cement tanks.

Taster´s notes

This spectacular red shows all the trait of the great Crus of Souther Rhone wine but with youthful approachability. Ruby red with notes of cassis, plums, and fresh red berries with hints of licorice, spices, and truffle. Supple but generous mouthfeel with velvety tannins. We recommend pairing this wine with stews, braised and roasted meat dishes, all types of beef, lamb, goat, beef, duck, chicken and pork. We suggest a serving temperature of 16ºC

Customer Reviews

The Winery

The story of Saint Préfert begins more than a century ago, in 1920. A great wine connoisseur, Fernand SERRE, a pharmacist in Avignon, discovered a district of Châteauneuf du Pape one day, the Greenhouse district. A great lover of wine and a fine apothecary, he acquired more than 80 hectares in this area located on the southern side of the village with a secret desire: to become a winegrower.
