Terroir and Winemaking Philosophy

Clos Rougeard, located in the heart of the village of Chacé, utilizes vines averaging 80 years old, planted on a thin layer of clay over a deep bed of tuffeau. This unique terroir contributes to the wine's dense, full-bodied texture and riper, fleshier fruit. The estate's philosophy, adopted by the Foucault brothers from the 1980s, emphasizes leaving the wine in peace to express its own identity. The Bouygues family's acquisition in 2017 has continued this legacy with a deep respect for the winery's DNA.

• Old vines and rich terroir in the heart of Chacé
• Passionate team dedicated to excellence and uniqueness
• Respect for the winery's DNA and identity
