AOP Côtes de Provence – Made with organic grapes

Technical sheet of XIIIE Rosé

This cuvée domaine was created to mark the 20th anniversary of Philippe Austruy’s acquisition of the Commanderie de Peyrassol, and pays tribute to the century in which the estate was founded. The very soul of the vineyard, XIIIE reflects the colours of the Château Peyrassol terroir. Its unique bottle and free-form label, created by the designer Pierre Yovanovitch, combine authenticity and modernity, in perfect harmony with this wine, which unapologetically reveals the taste of the fruit.

The 2025 vintage

The 2025 vintage was shaped by the rhythm of a demanding natural environment. A cool, wet winter gradually gave way to a spring marked by sustained, often stormy rainfall, falling unevenly depending on the layout and contours of each parcel.

This was followed by a hot summer, punctuated by two heatwaves – the first in early July, the second at the end of August – which accelerated ripening across the vineyards. Along the coast, harvest began as early as mid-August, nearly two weeks ahead of the dates recorded some thirty years ago.

Further inland, the later-ripening terroirs of Provence, particularly on the limestone plateaus, followed a different tempo, with more varied harvest dates largely dictated by the soil’s water reserves.

In the glass, the rosés and whites have retained a very fine freshness, essential to preserving the fruit and delicacy for which they are renowned, while the reds reveal power and concentration.

In the cellar, responsiveness and precise control of fermentation temperatures were the key challenges. Cellar masters and oenologists, working with fruit of outstanding quality, had to tame musts naturally rich in sugar and warmth in order to unlock the full potential of the grapes and preserve the balance of the wines.

Sustained by this remarkable quality of fruit, 2025 stands out as a generous, well-balanced vintage, confidently oriented towards the future.

Soil

Clay and limestone from the inland valleys, combined with a few plots of cool, deep soil. Freshness is maintained by the choice of north facing plots

Grape varieties

60 % Grenache – 40 % Syrah

Vinification

Harvesting was guided by plot selection, precisely timed to the development of ripeness controls. The harvest was then guided by the rhythms of the moon. Traditional vinification in temperature controlled stainless steel vats after gentle pneumatic pressing.

Ageing

A few months in stainless steel vats on fine lees ensures that the aromatic freshness is preserved.

Tasting notes

Pale rose-petal in colour, delicate and bright. The nose reveals fresh flowers and delicate fruit in an airy, subtle register. On the palate, the attack is velvety, soft and enveloping. The finish is saline and energetic, stretching out the tasting and bringing both tension and freshness
