Located on 30 hectares of picturesque vineyards in the St. David’s Bench, Château des Charmes has been a cornerstone of Canadian winemaking since 1978. Founded by Paul Bosc, a visionary in the wine industry, the winery has a proud tradition of innovation and a commitment to excellence.
Leading the winery is Marco Piccoli, a highly respected figure in the Canadian wine community. With roots in Italy and numerous awards recognizing his winemaking expertise, Marco is dedicated to building on the strong foundation of Château des Charmes. “It’s a privilege to honor the winery’s history while steering it toward an exciting future,” he says.
The wines of Château des Charmes showcase the unique character of its estate-grown grapes. Crafted by winemaker Amélie Boury, the portfolio features everything from elegant single-vineyard selections to bold reds that age beautifully. The winery’s sustainable farming practices highlight its commitment to environmental responsibility, earning it the distinction of being one of Canada’s Certified Sustainable Wineries.
