Philippe Lebrun

Produced in the Languedoc by Philippe Lebrun, one of the Languedoc’s crop of dynamic, flexible and forward thinking winemakers, who have responded to the onslaught of wine from the New World with relish. Using the best parcels in the area, the quality of the Le Charme range is truly outstanding and demonstrates the quality of wines that can be produced in this area of France.
A ruby red appearance, with lovely cassis and raspberry flavours and slightly spicy hints. A lot of fruit flavours on the palate with a hint of black pepper at the finish.
Delicious with roasted vegetable dishes.
Ripe grapes are essential to produce a good wine. Our winemakers look for the right moment for the harvest of each particular vineyard. A small part of the crop goes through hot skin contact maceration in order to support the fruity aromas. The majority of the grapes is destemmed and sent to traditional maceration and fermentation for about three weeks. This long process is ideal to extract the character of the variety and to get a good structure with supple tannins.
