PÉCHARMANT

Subtle, complex and unique: the perfect combination

Deep dark red wine comes from this thoughtful hill on the edge of Bergerac. Pécharmant wine is strong and smooth with a full-bodied flavour.

The perfect combination: subtle, complex and unique
Just like their wine, Pécharmant winemakers stand out for their smooth and charming personalities. But mystery still surrounds where the name Pécharmant comes from: “Pech” means “hill” in Occitan so does it mean a “charming hill”? Maybe the hill was owned by someone called Armand?

History

The Pécharmant designation has been an AOC (Designation of Controlled Origin) wine since 1946. Just 4 places make it: Creysse, Bergerac, Lembras and Saint-Sauveur.

terroir

The Pécharmant vineyard covers a row of hills in a semi-circle north of Bergerac, on the right bank of the Dordogne. What sets it apart is its “Périgord sand and gravel” soil which comes from granite rocks in the Massif Central. The mild ocean climate helps the grapes ripen well and pack them with sugar and aroma.
