With only four owners over its thousand-year-old history, La Commanderie de Peyrassol is one of the finest viticultural estates in France. It is intrinsically an extraordinary synthesis and epitome of the Mediterranean vineyards. Leafing through the pages and exploring the vineyards, readers will discover all the secrets of vinification and the production of a Provençal grand cru wine, as well as the estate's exceptional collection of open-air contemporary art.

Peyrassol is essentially a place where visitors are made to feel welcome as they pass through and share experiences. It was a natural next step to create a book that reflects the same passion for dissemination. It will enable wine lovers to understand the terroir and the way in which white, red, and rosé wines are produced. It also explains all the techniques of tasting and how to use the right vocabulary, and contains some typical Provençal recipes. Peyrassol is a whole ensemble of experiences, and this book, embellished by Christophe Goussard's splendid photographs, sets out to reveal all the estate's mysteries and art de vivre.
