2023 Bourgueil Rosé
Domaine de la Chanteleuserie


Thierry Boucard with his vineyard helper

Our love of Loire Valley rosé and our relationship with the Boucard family of Domaine de la Chanteleuserie go back almost to our founding, but it wasn’t until more recently that these two loves found each other. For decades, the Boucards have sent us some of the Loire’s most joyous and overdelivering reds made from Cabernet Franc, but now the family also produces an elegant and charming rosé from the region’s great red grape. The first thing you’ll notice is how enchanting the wine’s floral aromas are. As you take a sip, though, the flowers fade and are replaced with elegant notes of strawberry, herbs, and a final, bracing wave of citrus zest. This rosé offers a beautiful accompaniment not only to fresh spring produce but also to the roasted Brussels sprouts and spicy fried chicken I’ll be making for months to come.

About The Producer
Domaine de la Chanteleuserie
About The Region
Loire
The defining feature of the Loire Valley, not surprisingly, is the Loire River. As the longest river in France, spanning more than 600 miles, this river connects seemingly disparate wine regions. Why else would Sancerre, with its Kimmeridgian limestone terroir be connected to Muscadet, an appellation that is 250 miles away?
Secondary in relevance to the historical, climatic, environmental, and cultural importance of the river are the wines and châteaux of the Jardin de la France. The kings and nobility of France built many hundreds of châteaux in the Loire but wine preceded the arrival of the noblesse and has since out-lived them as well.
Diversity abounds in the Loire. The aforementioned Kimmeridgian limestone of Sancerre is also found in Chablis. Chinon, Bourgueil, and Saumur boast the presence of tuffeau, a type of limestone unique to the Loire that has a yellowish tinge and a chalky texture. Savennières has schist, while Muscadet has volcanic, granite, and serpentinite based soils. In addition to geologic diversity, many, grape varieties are grown there too: Cabernet Franc, Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, and Melon de Bourgogne are most prevalent, but (to name a few) Pinot Gris, Grolleau, Pinot Noir, Pineau d’Aunis, and Folle Blanche are also planted. These myriad of viticultural influences leads to the high quality production of every type of wine: red, white, rosé, sparkling, and dessert.
Like the Rhône and Provence, some of Kermit’s first imports came from the Loire, most notably the wines of Charles Joguet and Château d’Epiré—two producers who are featured in Kermit’s book Adventures on the Wine Route and with whom we still work today.

Great winemakers, great terroirs, there is never any hurry. And I no longer buy into this idea of “peak” maturity. Great winemakers, great terroirs, their wines offer different pleasures at different ages.
