Detailed Description

Scents of lime and pineapple as well as a whiff of wood smoke in the nose of the Clos Rougeard 2007 Saumur Breze usher in a brightly citric, pungently smoky palate, underlain by chalky, alkaline traces. This offers a Chenin-typical instance of density allied to levity and refreshment, and it finishes with a remarkable tenacity, verve, and hard-to-describe minerality.

Producer Information

Clos Rougeard is an highly regarded wine estate in Saumur Champigny near the village of Chacé in the Loire Valley. The estate was taken over by brothers Bernard (better known as “Nady”) and Charly Foucault in 1969, but had been in their family since 1894. Clos Rougeard has become famous as a cult producer because of the high quality and extremely limited release of its wines – around 2500 cases annually.All of its wine is sold by allocation only, mostly to restaurants, and very little outside of France. Added to this, the Foucaults’ shunning of publicity further added to the estate’s cult status.Clos Rougeard produces only four wines: a single white wine from 100-percent Chenin Blanc called Brézé, a Saumur (blanc); and three 100-percent Cabernet Franc reds: Saumur Champigny Le Clos, Les Poyeux and Le Bourg.
