Due to the extreme rarity of its wines—and the fact that its pure Cabernet Francs may be the world’s greatest—Clos Rougeard has become the Loire Valley’s ultimate cult producer.
Its red trophies, Poyeux and Bourg, are now among the world’s most coveted wines, while its towering white, Brézé, is nearly as ardently sought after. Not only do they come from three of the most extraordinary terroirs in France; they represent the winemaking of two brothers who are among France’s most gifted, Nady and Charly Foucault.
Saumur-Champigny "Les Clos" is a blend of three vineyards 50-70 years of age within Chacé, with a mixture of clay and limestone soils. After native yeast fermentations in concrete, the wine will age 18-24 months in neutral barrique.
