About this Item

La Fleur de Boüard
Lalande de Pomerol, 2005
2 (1 x 2) 750ml

Château la Fleur de Boüard is a winery on Bordeaux's Right Bank in the Lalande-de-Pomerol appellation. It makes several Merlot-dominant cuvées and is known for its unique state-of-the-art winery. The estate is owned by Hubert de Boüard de Laforest, who purchased the 25-hectare (62-acre) property in 1998. The Laforest family owns a handful of Bordeaux estates, the best known of which are in Saint-Émilion and include the Premier Grand Cru Classé A winery Château Angélus.

Critics Ratings

 ‘A gorgeously dense ruby/purple-colored wine, the 2005 La Fleur de Boüard is a blend of 85% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, aged nearly 20 months in new oak. A big wine (14% alcohol), it is rich, concentrated, full-bodied and performs far above its official pedigree. It can be drunk over the next 10+ years. Drink 2015 - 2025.’ – Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, 93/100 (Jun 2015)

‘Round, soft and very velvety, with gorgeous fruit and tannins. Full-bodied, chewy and seductive. This is big and juicy.’ – James Suckling, Wine Spectator, 90/100 (Mar 2008)
