Commanderie de Peyrassol Launches Its 1st Certified-Organic 2022 Vintage in the U.S.
Commanderie de Peyrassol, in partnership with fine wine marketer Wilson Daniels, is launching its inaugural certified-organic vintage in the U.S. this month. The winery's entire range from the 2022 vintage – including the rosés, whites, and reds – is certified by the rigorous French certifying body Ecocert, thus reinforcing the Commanderie's commitment to quality, terroir, and biodiversity.
"We've had the privilege of working with the Austruy family since the 2020 vintage release, and I speak on behalf of the entire Wilson Daniels team when I say it's an honor to participate in this latest chapter in the winery's commitment to sustainable, organic practices," said Rocco Lombardo, President of Wilson Daniels. "Our customers and collectors are already enamored with Peyrassol's historical relevance and authentic style, and with the launch of this certified organic 2022 vintage, we hope to share these refined Provençal wines far and wide so even more fine wine consumers can experience the Commanderie's unique philosophy and hospitality."
Founded by the Knights Templar in 1204, the 1,000-hectare estate has continuously produced distinctive, energetic wines that are emblematic of the iconic terroir of Provence. With this new certification, the Austruy family aims to preserve its vineyards for generations to come, while also maintaining the high quality standard and hallmarks of each of its cuvées.
