Wine Advocate: 91 Points
At present this estate is the reference point for high quality wines from Lalande de Pomerol. The basic cuvee from proprietor Hubert de Bouard and his wife Corinne the 2006 La Fleur de Bouard is composed of 80% Merlot 15% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. Sensationally rich with abundant quantities of blue and black fruits spring flowers graphite licorice and hints of espresso roast as well as toasty oak it is supple enough to be drunk now or cellared for a decade. - Robert M. Parker Jr.
Wine Spectator: 90 Points
Very pretty blackberry dark chocolate and blueberry aromas follow through to a full body with wonderfully integrated tannins and a long refined finish. Fine and polished.
Wine Enthusiast: 89-91 Points
Owned by Hubert de Bouärd of Château Angélus this is an example of what can be done in the lesser appellations if money is no object. It is smooth ripe with new wood but not too much powered by top quality densely dry tannins.
