2015 Saumur-Champigny, Clos Rougeard

The 2015 Saumur Champigny is deep, refined and elegant on the clear and fresh nose that displays very fine dark berry and iodine as well as chalky and herbal aromas. Round, intense and juicy on the palate, with fine tannins and acidity, this is a silky, deep and fleshy, very fine and elegant yet also lush and balanced Cabernet with fine tannins and a long and intense, aromatic finish. 12.5% alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in September 2021. ~ (94) Stephan Reinhardt, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate 10-14-2021
