Product features : Château Pradeaux Le Lys 2011 Bandol Rouge 75cl
In the mouth
The palate shows good structure with flavours of leather, dark cherry, and stone fruit. Tannins are firm but integrated, with a clean, persistent finish that speaks to the wine's balance and ageing potential.
On the nose
Elegant dark fruit aromas—blackberry and plum—with secondary notes of ripe stone fruit and a hint of garrigue. The bouquet is restrained and well-defined.
On the eye
Brilliant garnet robe with good depth and clarity.
Breeding
Aged 22 months in seasoned oak foudre.
I have long admired Château Pradeaux for its commitment to authentic Bandol. This Le Lys cuvée is precisely the sort of wine I recommend to those seeking a Mourvèdre of character and food-friendliness. It pairs beautifully with game, duck confit, and robust Provençal dishes. A wine that rewards both immediate pleasure and patient cellaring.

CHATEAU PRADEAUX
Set on hillside slopes facing the sea at Saint-Cyr-sur-Mer in the Var, Château Pradeaux farms 26 hectares in organic conversion across the Bandol appellation, with yields held to just 28 hl/ha. In the Portalis family since 1752, the estate is today run by Edouard and Etienne Portalis — heirs to a lineage that helped bring the Bandol AOC into existence in 1941. Mourvèdre, the appellation's defining grape, finds genuine depth here on deep clay-limestone soils. At Halles Quercamps, we have selected this estate for the rigour of its viticulture, the consistency of its style, and its singular place in the history of Bandol. A Provençal reference we are proud to champion.
