#Lou from Commanderie de Peyrassol is one of the most famous, very delicate, and aromatic rosés of Provence. But behind the wine parchments, hides a long history, which only a few estates in the whole of France have. Luxury color, exotic citrus fruits, berries, and a spicy touch, it is sure to bring the summer beaches one step closer to you!
The Commanderie de Peyrassol, founded in the 13th century by the Knights Templar, is located at the foot of the Massif des Maures in southeastern France. It has 900 hectares of vineyards located 220-350 meters above sea level and includes 13 different grape varieties, but mostly Cinsault, Grenache Rouge, Mourvedre, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Semillon. And while they produce equally white and red wines, they put all their magic in their rosés, for which they have stood out among many wineries in the country, due to the age of the vineyards from which they are collected.
Lou is an organic rosé that has resulted from the collaboration of the Peyrassol house, with local producers, to highlight the best terroirs of the region. It includes 30% Grenache, 25% Cinsault, 20% Syrah, 15% Mourvèdre, and 10% Vermentino that were vinified in stainless steel tanks, to create a value-for-money rosé wine that you will consume almost obsessively and if you pair it with the Thai curry chicken, it will be simply fabulous!
