Clos Rougeard, Saumur-Champigny Les Clos, 2012
From one of the Loire's most legendary estates, drinking in its prime. Clos Rougeard, in Saumur-Champigny near Chace, treats Cabernet Franc as a serious vin de garde, vinifying in old cement vats and aging in barrel for wines that reward patience. Le Clos is the estate's blended Cabernet Franc cuvée, drawn from clay-limestone plots in Saumur-Champigny. The 2012 was a small but high-quality vintage with good concentration, and this is showing well now with room to develop further. A rare chance to taste Loire history.
