2022 La Fleur de Bouard

The 2022 Château La Fleur De Boüard is a more elegant, pretty wine in the vintage that still brings plenty of fruit and texture. Ripe black cherries, loamy earth, leather, and spicy, incense-like notes all define the aromatics, and it's medium-bodied on the palate, with fine, polished tannins, good balance, and outstanding length. It picks up weight and depth with time in the glass and is perfect for drinking over the coming 10-15 years.

This layered and juicy red has notes of currants, blueberries, dried flowers and licorice, as well as crushed stones. It’s medium- to full-bodied with very fine, polished tannins. Long and delicious already. Drink from 2026.

Deep inky plum colour, intense and concentrated with black cherry and cherry pit, touch of bitterness on the finish. Well judged, enjoyable. Now majority owned by the Liquard family, with Hubert de Boüard still minority owner and running the estate along with director Emmanuel Teillet. 50% new oak, bottled unfiltered and unfined.
