The Clos Rougeard Saumur-Champigny Les Poyeux 2019 embodies the tuffeau and sandstone terroir of "Les Poyeux". This barrel-aged Cabernet Franc offers notes of ripe fruit and spices, with a lively, mineral texture. Perfect through 2030, it pairs beautifully with game and hard cheeses.
A family estate rooted in Chacé since 1664, Clos Rougeard embodies the exacting standards of the Val de Loire through wines of rare purity.
- Terroir: Sandstone and tuffeau soils of the Saumur-Champigny appellation, where Cabernet Franc flourishes into a mineral and precise expression.
- Vinification: Minimalist approach, barrel ageing and respect for the fruit, yielding cuvées of natural elegance.
Tasting notes for Clos Rougeard Saumur-Champigny Les Poyeux 2019
To the eye – A deep red robe with garnet reflections, of a silky and luminous texture.
On the nose – Aromas of fresh morello cherry, wild violet and black pepper, followed by a hint of graphite and a subtle chalky salinity.
On the palate – A lively and taut attack, where the tension of Cabernet Franc marries a chalky minerality, carried through by a long, saline finish of persistent elegance.
Serve at 16-18°C in a Bordeaux-style red wine glass to reveal its full complexity.
