The 2021 Peyrassol Les Commandeurs Cotes de Provence Rosé was a Merchant's Pick

"Editor's Choice" rosé is pure Provence!

May 16, 2023

Peyrassol rosé is so good, the only thing I change when and how I drink it is the food I'm pairing with this chameleon. 

From salads to burgers to fire-grilled pizza to a wedge of cheese, few rosés offer such versatility - either as a stand-alone quaffer or a serious food pairing wine. 

Nothing says summer quite like a thirst-questing rosé - and Peyrassol is one of the best from Provence. 

Incisive red berry, cherry, and citrus fruit aromas are complemented by building mineral and floral accents. Silky and energetic on the palate, offering intense strawberry, blood orange and honeysuckle flavors braced by a spine of juicy acidity. Finishes long and gently chewy, repeating the orange and floral notes."  Vinous

Commandeurs harvests date back to 1256.  With nearly 800 years of wine production, Commanderie de Peyrassol is considered a landmark in Provence, chosen for its secluded location. 

A classic Provencal blend of Grenache, Cinsault, and Syrah, the wine also has 10% Vermentino, which provides gorgeous lift and vibrancy.

Enjoy the liveliness of the delicious rosé with classic pairings of salmon, scallops, or sea bass.   You can dress it down with crudites.  You can even enjoy it with your favorite grilled burger recipe.  

Enjoy!

“Crafted to provide thirst-quenching freshness.”

Winemaker Notes

"Cuvée des Commandeurs bottles the essence of quality fruit, seeking to evoke pleasure and delight the senses. This accessible rosé was crafted to provide thirst-quenching freshness with vibrant fruitiness, without sacrificing elegance and complexity. A soft color reminiscent of rose petals. A beautiful nose of English candy, strawberry, and raspberry aromas followed by light redcurrant and citrus notes. The delicate and tender palate, marked by the complexity of red and exotic fruit flavors, fully releases all the grape varieties’ expression. Enjoy the liveliness of this wine with a taste of salmon, scallops, or sea bass sushi.""

“Red berry and spice flavors come together”

Wine Enthusiast

Editor's Choice

"The wine is peppery as well as full of ripe fruit. Red berry and spice flavors come together in a wine whose name recalls the commanders of the Knights Templar in the Middle Ages. "
