2018 Domaine Clos Rougeard Saumur Blanc Breze

Other Reviews....
The 2018 Brézé is a clay-ey site, giving richness to the wine. It is round, silky and succulent, reflecting this sunny, warm vintage. It is at a beautiful stage in its evolution: developing almond characters alongside white peach. There’s fine acid rather than a racy profile but with a gourmand texture. Pastry, peach, and almond linger on the long finish. Drink 2023-2028.

Softer impression to the nose than the 2019, but overlaid with a sense of minerality following through to the palate. This vintage is a halfway house between the old style (very flavourful and full-bodied), and the new style (fresher with more sense of tension). It shows a perfect balance between fruity and savoury, with some light lactic impressions at the end. ‘This is Clos Rougeard with all the complexity from citrus to exotic fruits,’ says winemaker Jacques-Antoine Toublanc. Drink 2022 - 2032.
