in just a few years, clos rougeard has become the most emblematic and renowned estate in the loire region and even in france. if its great notoriety is recent, it is however not the case of the vineyard, jean-louis and bernard, the "foucault brothers", represented the eighth generation on this family exploitation. the vineyard is located in chacé, between tours and angers and covers 10 hectares in the saumur and saumur champigny appellations. the incomparable quality of the wines of this domain is largely due to the extremely demanding viticulture, which has been practiced since at least the 1960s, with the practice of organic farming even before it was officially recognized. however, the estate has never sought to be labeled. thus, these vines which have never known the slightest chemical product express all the complexity of their terroir. the vinification is done with the least possible intervention and the maturation lasts at least two years. the estate produces six vintages, two of which are white. in late december 2015, jean-louis foucault, known as "charly," passed away. some time later, the estate was sold to new shareholders, including the bouygues brothers. the wines produced before this takeover have become collectors' items... the estate produces, when the vintage allows it, three red wines, two of which are parcels: poyeux, a wine with a beautiful dark ruby color, full-bodied yet very delicate; bourg, a racy and dense wine, which is aged in new oak barrels for 18 to 24 months. in white, the brezé cuvée is today among the best white wines of the loire valley. the saumur-champigny le bourg du clos rougeard is made from two parcels of half a hectare each. it is a racy and dense wine, aged for 18 to 24 months in new oak barrels. with a magnificent complexity, this wine, which has nothing to envy to the greatest, reveals an exceptional longevity and finesse.
