The Clos Rougeard Saumur-Champigny Les Poyeux 2017, born on the tuffeau hillsides of the appellation, expresses the purity of Cabernet Franc. Notes of cherry, black olive and aromatic herbs, a lively palate and silky tannins. Perfect for 10 to 15 years of cellaring, it pairs beautifully with red meats and slow-cooked dishes.
A historic estate rooted in the hillsides of Saumur-Champigny, Clos Rougeard has perpetuated a family winemaking heritage since the 17th century.
- Terroir: Clay-limestone and tuffeau soils in the Loire Valley, shaping wines of chalky minerality and rare elegance.
- Vinification: Traditional methods and respect for the fruit, producing cuvées of precise tension and long persistence.
