Château de Peyrassol - Côtes de Provence 'Les Commandeurs' Blanc 2023

Commanderie de Peyrassol is located in the foothills of the Massif des Maures mountain range, ten miles from the Mediterranean Sea, between Cannes and Marseille. Founded by the Knights Templar in 1204, Commanderie de Peyrassol has thrived as a sanctuary for gathering travelers, all the while holding true to its values of hospitality and conviviality. The estate consists of 1,000 hectares with 95 hectares planted to vineyards cultivated on dry, rocky clay and limestone soils. With effort from the current owner, Philippe Austury, to revitalize estate's centuries-old reputation, Peyrassol is now, more than ever, synonymous with great wines and celebrated generosity across the world.

At Peyrassol, the winery, built from ancestral stone, contains state-of-the-art winemaking equipment, allowing vinification to be performed with a high degree of precision. The winemaking team blend modern machinery with age old tradition, handling the grapes with the same care and attention that they receive on the vine.

After destemming the grapes are pressed as quickly as possible. Fermentation takes place slowly at low temperature in temperature-controlled stainless-steel vats, without malolactic fermentation.

A few months in stainless steel vats on fine lees allow the aromatic freshness to be respected as much as possible.
