Cuvee Commandeurs Rose 2023
Côtes de Provence, France
Peyrassol
Produced from the younger vines of the estate with some fruit from neighboring growers to bring more complexity. This very accessible rosé is an excellent introduction to the Peyrassol style with its intense style. More dense than La Croix, this takes things up a notch!

91 Wine Enthusiast - 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. Roger Voss
Tasting Note: Pale pink and delicate. Notes of small wild berries mingle on the nose with a hint of juniper. This spicy touch supports a palate built on liveliness reminiscent of exotic citrus fruit. The whole is harmonious, clean and refreshing.
