Peyrassol
La Croix Rosé
Commanderie de Peyrassol has broadened its offering using fruit from its IGP classified vineyard around the Coudonnier area and completed with sourcings from local partnerships. After destemming and a pneumatic pressing, the wine undergoes a 4-hour cold settling to remove the heavy lees, then is racked into stainless steel tank for the temperature-controlled fermentation. The wine has a short aging on fine lees before light filtration. An accessible blend in the true style of Provençal rosé.
We carefully select the best terroirs, the finest grapes and share best practices with our partner winegrowers to create authentic wines that reflect the DNA of Peyrassol. We make the choice to be organic, in coherence with the range of our wines of the estate. A demanding and uncompromising sourcing brings us today to offer you the best of Provence.

At first sight, the wine displays a pretty pale pink color with bluish highlights. The nose is expressive and enticing, with ripe vineyard peach layered over a fresh bouquet of white flowers. On the palate, a lively, refreshing attack leads into bright citrus notes and a mouth-watering, orange-candy texture, finishing with fine bitters that add savory lift and structure.

"The wine is all fruit: Crisp citrus and red currant flavors abound. It's a lively, open and bright wine."
