Clos Naudin, an estate that restores the noble credentials of Vouvray, at the heart of the Loire
Wines from the Clos Naudin de Foreau estate: buy at the best price
The Clos Naudin estate was created in Vouvray in 1910 by Armand Foreau. His son André succeeded him before his own son Philippe Foreau vinified his first vintage in 1982, raising the estate's reputation to great heights. Since 2007, Vincent Foreau, Philippe's son, has joined him and consistently maintained Clos Naudin's production among the finest Loire whites. Here, the notion of terroir is no empty word, and in Vouvray, the aim of Clos Naudin is to nurture the microbial life of the soils, in keeping with ancestral traditions and a biologically driven approach. Harvesting is done by hand, with meticulous sorting, with the goal of producing either sparkling wines, still dry wines, off-dry wines, or moelleux.
