The twenty-five-hectare property has a high proportion of Merlot within its vineyard and an increasing amount of Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon to better reflect the unique terroir and for finesse and elegance. The vines used for this 2014 vintage have an average age of 25 years. The grapes from each plot are vinified separately, starting with a cool maceration at 8-10�C followed by alcoholic fermentation in cone-shaped tanks. After a further maceration of 3 - 5 weeks, the wine is transferred to oak barrels (75%-80% new) and aged for 18 - 24 months before blending and bottling. GRAPE VARIETIES 85% Merlot, 7% Cabernet franc, 8% Cabernet Sauvignon Tasting notes A rich and beautifully full-bodied wine with aromas of blackberry, blueberry and vanilla. Well sculpted with floral notes and velvety tannins.

Purchased in 1998 by Hubert de Boüard de Laforest, internationally renowned winemaker and co-owner of St Emilion 1er Grand Cru Classé “A” Château Angélus, Château La Fleur de Boüard is located close to the village of Néac on the most sought after territory of Lalande-de-Pomerol.

Previously known as Château La Fleur Saint George, the family followed the age old tradition of renaming a property following a change of ownership and christened the property La Fleur de Boüard. The region is renowned for its warm, mild conditions which lead to early flowering, hence many properties in the locality carry 'la fleur' in their names.

Hubert de Boüard de Laforest has always believed that estates in Lalande-de-Pomerol are capable of producing outstanding wines, on a par with the greatest Bordeaux appellations. Built on family heritage, Hubert de Boüard de Laforest asked his daughter Coralie de Boüard to manage the estate. Philippe Nunes, an expert technician, was appointed technical director. They work together to create the most elegant expressions of this terroir.
