Clos Rougeard: An Iconic Saumur-Champigny and Saumur Estate

Clos Rougeard, located in the Loire Valley, is one of the most prestigious vineyards in Saumur-Champigny. Spanning 15 hectares, the estate is renowned for its exceptional Saumur-Champigny wines, made from Cabernet Franc vines grown on argilo-calcareous soils. Since its establishment in 1664, the estate has consistently produced wines of unparalleled quality, combining finesse with power.

Clos Rougeard’s Iconic Cuvées

Clos Rougeard offers a selection of renowned cuvées, each reflecting a unique facet of the Saumur-Champigny terroir.

Le Clos

  • Blended from two parcels, this cuvée embodies the perfect balance between fruitiness and elegance, with aromas of red fruits and a beautiful length on the palate. It reflects the family craftsmanship passed down over eight generations.

Les Poyeux

  • Sourced from a 2.9-hectare plot with sandy soils, this cuvée produces a wine that is fresh, fine, and elegant. Its impressive length and rare finesse make it a standout choice.

Le Bourg

  • This wine comes from a calcareous plot in the village of Chacé, producing dense, firmly structured, and sunny wines. With a limited production of less than 4,000 bottles, this cuvée is a true treasure to discover.

Terroir and Viticulture Philosophy

Clos Rougeard is distinguished by its unique terroir and sustainable farming practices. The estate follows organic and biodynamic farming methods, avoiding chemicals. This respect for the land allows the wines to develop complexity and depth that are exceptional.

Brézé: An Exceptional White Wine

The estate also produces a white wine, Brézé, made from Chenin Blanc grown on calcareous soils. This wine offers great aromatic richness with a saline freshness, echoing the minerality of the soils.
