Deep purple-black colored, the 2020 La Fleur de Boüard leaps from the glass with gregarious scents of black and red cherries, mulberries and stewed black plums, plus hints of cinnamon toast and red roses. The medium to full-bodied palate offers beautiful harmony with plush tannins and seamless freshness supporting the red and black berry layers, finishing fragrant.

Joli nez qui associe fruit croquant et bouquet de violettes, avant d'évoluer vers une touche de poivre blanc. Bouche très bien équilibrée, entre le juteux, l’élégance, et des tannins déjà bien fondus. La matière laisse une impression de puissance encore contrainte, ambiance ado un peu rebelle.

The 2020 La Fleur de Boüard is racy, plush and super-expressive right out of the gate. Inky red cherry/plum fruit, spice, new leather, licorice and rose petal fill out the layers. Silky tannins and pliant fruit add to the wine’s considerable immediacy and overall appeal, while bright floral accents lift the finish.

The 2020 La Fleur de Boüard has a gorgeous bouquet of vibrant red cherries, blueberry and violet scents, very well defined and assimilated with the new oak. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins and a fine bead of acidity. Harmonious and silky-smooth, displaying a touch of white pepper toward the finish. Excellent.

Flowers, plums, cherries, cocoa, wet earth, licorice, espresso and sweet, energetic, silky cherries are found on the nose and palate. The wine is elegant, fruity and supple, with chewy textures and loads of ripe fruit in the finish. 91-93

Bien qu'un peu fermé, le nez offre des arômes de bois, de cassis, de myrtille et quelques notes florales. Bel enrobage en bouche, des tanins parfaitement structurants et veloutés, un boisé délicat et une structure moyennement dense et bien en place. Parti pour une garde de 4 à 10 ans.

Dunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Feine Edelholzwürze, ein Hauch von Nougat, reife Herzkirschen, tabakige Nuancen. Saftig, reife Pflaumenfrucht, reife, tragende Tannine, schokoladiger Touch im Abgang, ein kraftvoll-würziger Speisenbegleiter.

Lots of blackberry, blueberry and tar character. Medium-bodied with firm tannins and a polished texture at the end. Precise and well crafted.
