Clos Rougeard les Poyeux 2005 - Frères Foucault

Tasting notes

"The 2005 Saumur-Champigny Les Poyeux – in half new and half one-wine barriques – offers an intense, high-toned nose of ripe blackberry and machine oil. Deep, rich and expansive on the palate, featuring stock-pot meatiness, ripe blackberry fruit, alluring, Chambertin-like rose petal inner-mouth florality, and subtly salty minerality, this should be worthy of a decade or more of bottle age.(...)"

INFORMATIONS ABOUT THE ESTATE

The estate encompasses 10 hectares and the brothers use organic farming methods, limiting yields and only harvesting once the grapes have reached perfect maturity.

They produce three red cuvées:

the Poyeux, wines with great scope and wonderful finesse with a beautiful deep ruby shade and the Bourg cuvée, a refined, dense wine that is aged in new oak barrels for 18 to 24 months.

As for whites, the Brezé cuvée is now one of the best white wines in the Loire Valley.
