The Commandery of Peyrassol was founded in the 13th century by the Order of the Templars. Located on the foothills of the Massif des Maures, between the Mediterranean Sea and the Verdon, the property comprises nearly 850 hectares of oak trees, olive trees and garrigue which protect at their heart the centuries-old vineyard of great reputation, Château Peyrassol.
Owned by Philippe Austruy since 2001, the vineyard produces sublime Côtes de Provence AOP wines. The estate houses its owner's exceptional collection of contemporary art. La Commanderie de Peyrassol also welcomes visitors for a gourmet meal, a day of discovery, or a Provençal getaway. Weddings and seminars are also held there throughout the year.
Welcome to the Commandery of Peyrassol!
Its rosy appearance is delicate in color and an expressive nose lends charm to this blend. A palate dominated by wild berries: gooseberry and raspberry that reveal themselves in a crisp, silky mouthfeel enhanced with a touch of minerality.
A heavenly, full-bodied dry Riesling with forceful minerality from 100-year-old vines grown in the blue slate soil of Graach.
Graach is a small village in the Mosel valley. It’s steep slate slopes produce wines that combine elegance with rustic strength. Grosses Gewächs (GG) is the designation for an estate’s best dry wine from a Grosse Lage (grand cru) vineyard. This limited-production wine was fermented with indigenous yeasts and kept in the barrel, on the full lees, for a year before bottling. The extended maturation time allows the wine to develop greater texture and a deeper natural harmony. This is a fully ripe wine, with vibrant aromatics and a pronounced acidity that gives it a brilliant structural precision.
Review:
Convincing proof that 2020 is an excellent vintage for dry GG on the Mosel! Cool and stony with delicate white-peach and white-currant aromas. Really takes off at the intensely slatey and racy finish.

Argot Sauvignon Blanc Sonoma County is made out of 100 percent Sauvignon Blanc.
Massive aromatics, and a bold, intensely, full-flavored palate define the personality of this wine. Juicy stone fruits, laser-focused lemon Jolly Rancher and a full-blown tropical fruit character explode on the palate. This bright and inviting wine is perfectly suited to sunny afternoons or paired with classic summer fare.
