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.

Review:
"The brioche and cooked-apple and cream character really comes through here. Full-bodied and round with fine bubbles. Flavorful and intense. Vivid, bread-dough finish. This is four years on lees. 55% Chardonnay and the rest Pinot."

Elvio Cogno Cascina Nuova Barolo is made from 100 percent Nebbiolo.
Born to satisfy the curiosity of consumers keen to have a more immediate understanding of Barolo, the wine is bright garnet red in color with orange tints. Pleasing and immediate, it offers scents of flowers and light, delicate spices. The mouth is agreeably rounded, juicy and fresh, with just the right balance between pleasantness and elegance. The aftertaste is very harmonious with a mineral, aromatic finish.
Review:
This Barolo shows lavender, dried cranberries, licorice and a touch of tile on the nose. The palate is medium- to full-bodied and balanced, with lovely, succulent fruit complemented by incisive acidity. The tannins are fine grained yet chewy, but they gradually resolve toward the bright finish. Better from 2026.
