With a beautiful pale pink colour, this expressive cuvée immediately hints at passion fruit at first, then broadens out to include notes of pink grapefruit, red currant and even a touch of peach. A touch of refreshing greenness accompanies the palate to give this lively and fresh wine a thirst-quenching character. Finesse, flavours of white fruit and medium-bodied, with a silky texture in the mouth and a long, mouth-watering finish.

Château Peyrassol is a historic wine estate located in the heart of Provence, France, known for its exquisite rosé wines as well as red and white wines. The estate is nestled between the foothills of the Massif des Maures and the Mediterranean Sea, providing an ideal climate and terroir for viticulture. The origins of Peyrassol date back to the 13th century when it was founded by the Knights Templar, making it one of the oldest vineyards in the region.

Today, Château Peyrassol is managed by Philippe Austruy, who acquired the property in the early 2000s and has since invested significantly in modernizing the vineyards and winery. The estate covers several hundred hectares, with a significant portion dedicated to vineyards that are cultivated using sustainable practices to preserve the land and environment.

The wines of Château Peyrassol are emblematic of Provence, with the rosés being particularly celebrated. These rosés are crafted primarily from Cinsault, Grenache, and Syrah grapes, and are known for their light, crisp, and aromatic qualities that encapsulate the essence of Provencal rosé. They typically exhibit flavors of red berry fruits, citrus, and delicate floral notes, with a refreshing minerality.

Aside from rosé, Peyrassol also produces robust reds and elegant whites. The red wines are generally blends of Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot, offering deeper notes of dark fruits, spices, and herbs. The white wines, often made from Rolle (Vermentino) or Ugni Blanc, are appreciated for their brightness and aromatic complexity.

Château Peyrassol is also renowned for its beautiful art collection and sculpture park, which features works from internationally acclaimed artists, making it a destination not only for wine lovers but also for enthusiasts of art and culture. The combination of its historical legacy, commitment to quality winemaking, and the stunning Provencal landscape makes Château Peyrassol a jewel of the region.

The Méditerranée Indication Géographique Protégée (IGP) is a wine appellation that covers a vast area in the south-eastern region of France, encompassing Provence, the Rhône Valley, and parts of the Southern Alps. This designation allows for creative winemaking while preserving the unique character of the Mediterranean climate and terroir.

Wines produced under the Méditerranée IGP label showcase a broad diversity of styles and grape varieties. Both international and traditional French grapes are cultivated, including Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault, Mourvèdre, Viognier, and Chardonnay, among others. This flexibility encourages winemakers to blend traditional and modern approaches, resulting in wines that range from light, aromatic whites and rosés to robust, fruit-forward reds.

The region's warm climate, abundant sunshine, and cooling influences from the Mediterranean Sea contribute to wines with vibrant fruit flavours, balanced acidity, and a touch of minerality. These characteristics make Méditerranée IGP wines highly versatile and ideal for pairing with Mediterranean cuisine or enjoying on their own.

As an IGP classification, Méditerranée offers winemakers the freedom to innovate while ensuring quality standards, making it an exciting and approachable category for wine lovers.
