La Fleur de Boüard

“The 2011 La Fleur de Boüard is rich, full-bodied, ripe and assertive. Big, mellow and delicious, it features extra-ripe Merlot harvested late and with low yields. In a relatively short space of time, Hubert de Bouard (owner of Château Angelus) has created a benchmark for the greatness of Lalande de Pomerol. When tasted after 10 to 15 years, the Bouard wines consistently prove their conviction that they sit on a great terroir, even if this appellation is humble compared to its close neighbours, Pomerol and Saint -Emilion.” (Wine Advocate 2014 – Robert Parker)
