The estate was taken over by brothers Bernard (better known as \"Nady\") and Charly Foucault in 1969, but had been in their family since 1894. Clos Rougeard has become famous as a cult producer because of the high quality and extremely limited release of its wines – around 2500 cases annually.All of its wine is sold by allocation only, mostly to restaurants, and very little outside of France. Added to this, the Foucaults' shunning of publicity further added to the estate's cult status.Clos Rougeard produces only four wines: a single white wine from 100-percent Chenin Blanc called Brézé, a Saumur (blanc); and three 100-percent Cabernet Franc reds: Saumur Champigny Le Clos, Les Poyeux and Le Bourg.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2022-12-26T10:46:41-05:00","created_at":"2022-12-23T06:22:33-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","MK2312","other_french wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Clos Rougeard","Region_Loire","Source_Bestofwines1222","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Cabernet Franc"],"price":49899,"price_min":49899,"price_max":49899,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42643393740938,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2016 | Clos Rougeard | Saumur Champigny","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":49899,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/14_645f0fd3-fd7d-46f2-af80-43caf3bd3291.png?v=1671794577"],"featured_image":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/14_645f0fd3-fd7d-46f2-af80-43caf3bd3291.png?v=1671794577","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2016 | Clos Rougeard | Saumur Champigny at CaskCartel.com","id":23830479569034,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.498,"height":797,"width":397,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/14_645f0fd3-fd7d-46f2-af80-43caf3bd3291.png?v=1671794577"},"aspect_ratio":0.498,"height":797,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/14_645f0fd3-fd7d-46f2-af80-43caf3bd3291.png?v=1671794577","width":397}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2016 | Clos Rougeard | Saumur Champigny\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGreen Guide 2022 A very fine Loire balance emerges in this 2016, vinified gently and tactfully by Antoine Foucault.
