Importer Notes (Wilson Daniels): "Introduction: 100% estate fruit, offering the purest expression of a great Provencal terroir. 

Vintage Report: 2021 was a challenge, however, Peyrassol was lucky to escape adversity. At the end of April, a historic frost from the northwest (-9°C ) hit the region. The vines, late for the season, had not yet budded so the loss was minimal. In mid-August, a violent fire started in the plains of Le Luc, sowing desolation in its path. The mistral was kind to Peyrassol and repeled the fire in the opposite direction. At the beginning of September, a hail storm destroyed the entire harvest of the village of Pignan, just a few miles from the estate. The hills on the Peyrassol property blocked the clouds. Finally, floods ravage all the surrounding municipalities… but stopped at the gates of Flassans! In the end, the ultimate reward was an exceptional quality of musts and wines.

Tasting Notes: Very pale, lychee pink in color. The nose is fine and elegant. Complex, releasing white fleshed fruit and citrus fruits aromas, along with white floral notes. The palate is straightforward and clean. Fine and silky, it is soft, delicate and lively. The freshness of the finish is balanced with a subtle hint of saltiness.

Serving Suggestions: Pairs well with seafood such as fish soup or grilled sole but will also add a delight to any berry desserts."
