Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
Honeysuckle, lanolin, honeydew melon, and bittersweet floral perfume rise from the glass of Clos Rougeard 2006 Saumur Breze, which displays a cooling as well as soothing palate wreathed in high-toned herbs and floral essences; tinged with bitterness of quinine; and brimming with juicy melon. Alkaline and mollusk-like suggestions of things mineral lend mystery to a long finish. I would never have expected a wine with this almost Muscadet-like sense of buoyancy from its vintage.

Clos Rougeard

Clos Rougeard is an extremely respected and well-known estate among Loire Valley wines.

Located in Saumur-Champigny, the estate was taken over by the two brothers Bernard and Charly Foucault in 1969. Clos Rougeard has belonged to this family since 1894.

The estate produces one white wine (100% Chenin Blanc) - Saumur Blanc Breze - and 3 red wines (100% Cabernet Franc): Saumur Champigny Le Clos, Les Poyeux, Le Bourg.

The wines of Clos Rougeard are renowned for their authenticity as well as their rarity.

Le Bourg comes exclusively from a one-hectare plot planted with 70-year-old vines. The Poyeux plot was first planted in 1664. For authenticity, it doesn't get more purist than this. No use of chemicals or pesticides, manual harvesting, natural yeasts, no fining or filtering, 2 years of aging in oak barrels... The yields are consequently very low, and the methods used by the Foucault brothers have remained the same for generations.
