Château La Fleur de Boüard 2016 – Lalande-de-Pomerol

The nose is fruity, elegant and offers a beautiful elegance, definition and a fine intensity. It reveals notes of ripe / juicy blackberry and slight notes of blueberry, flowers associated with a discreet toasted hint. The palate is fruity, juicy, aerial, well-balanced and offers a nice creamy matter, a nice elegance, a good minerality, freshness, suavity, tension, a nice definition / gourmandise and a beautiful finesse. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of juicy blackberry, juicy/ripe cassis and a discrete tip of fleshy / juicy Gariguette strawberry associated with slight notes of chocolate, wood and a discreet hint of espresso. Tannins are fine and well-built. Good length and good persistence. Beautiful balance (precisely dosed between finesse, power and concentration). Presence of a fine hint of bitter dark chocolate that brings gourmandise on the finish / persistence.
