"Pure fruit for this vintage that everyone will agree on!"
This Pécharmant is well-structured and crisp, with peppery and minty flavors. The tannins are present but supple, and the lively structure makes it a very digestible and delicious wine. A simple pleasure for all special occasions!

4-star estate (Producers of very high quality, the pride of French vineyards)
About the estate:
Christian Roche has come a long way since obtaining organic certification in 2012 for his entire estate (50 hectares, including 33 hectares of white grape varieties and 17 hectares of red grape varieties). He produces a wide range of perfectly vinified wines, both red and white. The entry-level wines are flavorful and easy to drink, the result of demanding viticulture, while the grand cuvées are models of precision and complexity. In November 2021, Christian Roche passed away and made his wife Nathalie promise to continue the adventure. She is doing just that, supported by her children and son-in-law.

About the estate:
The fifth generation to cultivate vines, Christian Roche inherited part of the family estate in 1984 and set up his winery five years later. Established in the former presbytery of Colombier, and with a 50-hectare vineyard (predominantly white grapes) on varied soils, cultivated organically, he had made his estate, complemented by a wine merchant and producer business, one of the must-see destinations in the Bergerac region. Following his untimely death in 2021, his wife Nathalie is continuing his work.

Wine rating (2023 guide) 92/100 (2020 vintage)
Rated estate (2025 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing good wines; you won't be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
A presbytery at the top of the hill gives its name to the vineyard, whose rows run down the slopes to the road where Christian Roche has set up his wine cellar. The vineyard, which has been organic since 2012, has several appellations, including 3 hectares in Pécharmant, and is divided into four: Jour de fruit, L'Extase, L'Abbaye, and a sulfur-free wine: Ça sulfit ! Although the range is being modernized with this label, all the wines remain faithful to the classic fundamentals of the Bergerac region. Christian Roche passed away in the fall of 2020, but the adventure of L'Ancienne Cure continues thanks to his wife Nathalie.
