Clos Rougeard

Founded in 1664, Clos Rougeard was born on the lands of Chacé, a village located not far from Saumur. Eight generations have succeeded one another at the head of the estate, the most recent embodied by the Foucault brothers. From the 1980s onward, Charly and Nady embraced a singular philosophy to elevate the terroirs of Saumur and Saumur‑Champigny: letting the wine rest so it can express its own identity. No synthetic products are used in the vineyard, gentle vinifications are conceived like infusions, and a minimalist approach is fully embraced.

Since 2017, the Bouygues family has continued the work initiated by their emblematic predecessors, with deep respect for the cru’s DNA and identity. Today, the estate finds its balance thanks to a team of passionate individuals dedicated to preserving the excellence and uniqueness of wines whose depth, finesse and precision are truly distinctive.
