From vines over 50 years old, the Clos Rougeard Saumur-Champigny Les Poyeux 2019 rests on a terroir of sand and tuffeau. This Cabernet Franc combines black cherry, pepper and minerality, with a fresh and silky palate. Aged in barrels, it pairs with meats and cheeses through to 2035.
A family estate rooted in Chacé since 1664, Clos Rougeard embodies the exacting standards and winemaking tradition of the Loire Valley.
- Terroir: Clay-limestone soils and tuffeau plots, shaping Saumur-Champigny wines of distinctive minerality.
- Winemaking: Natural methods, patient aging in barrels and absolute respect for the fruit for cuvées of rare purity.
