Clos Rougeard, Saumur-Champigny Les Clos, 2009
From one of the Loire's most legendary estates, drinking beautifully at maturity. Clos Rougeard, in Saumur-Champigny near Chace, treats Cabernet Franc as a serious vin de garde, fermenting in old cement vats and aging in barrel for wines that evolve for decades. Le Clos is the estate's blended Cabernet Franc cuvée, drawn from clay-limestone plots in Saumur-Champigny. The 2009 was a warm, ripe vintage, giving a rounder, more generous version that is in a lovely spot now with more room ahead. A rare chance to drink Loire history.
