Note di degustazione
Deeply colored, the wine packs a punch with all of its fruit and all of its toasty oak, which is clearly present in the nose and on the palate. The fruit is there. The tannins are ripe, soft and polished, but this is going to need time to come together before its oak becomes fully integrated. Drink from 2026-2042.

As with the classic wine from this estate, the 2020 Château La Fleur De Boüard Le Plus has a gorgeous sense of elegance, yet it brings substantially more density, depth, and breadth in its aromatics as well as on the palate. Ripe currants, black cherry liqueur, spicy oak, white chocolate, graphite, and camphor are just some of its nuances, and it's full-bodied and rich, with a deep, layered, seamless mouthfeel and velvety tannins that emerge on the finish. The team of Hubert de Boüard has produced an incredible wine – yet again – and you could put this up with some of the finest Pomerols in the vintage and it would do just fine. It's going to evolve gracefully over the coming two decades. If there's a finer Lalande-de-Pomerol out there, I don't know of it.
A spiced character here with notes of plums and currants, dark licorice, hazelnuts and wet stones. Medium-bodied, toned and crunchy on the palate, with firm tannins and ripe succulence in the middle. Velvety and lingering. Try from 2025.
The 2020 Le Plus de La Fleur de Boüard is one of the best editions of this cuvée I have tasted. I am not sure about the extended élevage in barrel, but there is no denying the beauty and purity of the fruit. Black cherry, menthol, licorice, spice and chocolate build effortlessly in the glass. The 2020 is hugely promising.
