Made from the oldest vines growing in ground made up of large stones lying on top of clay, Le Plus de La Fleur de Bouard expresses the full character of the property's old Merlot grapes which are the only variety to be used. These very old vines obviously have very low yields of 15 to 29 hectolitres per hectare. The wine is aged for a very long time: 33 months in barrels including 18 months on fine lees. The resulting wine is smooth and elegant. It has perfect balance and lovely freshness. This lush, mouth-filling wine reveals a wide range of aromas and outstanding elegance.

Deep red ruby coloration. On the nose, strong dark cherry, florals, toasted oak, earth and leather. On the palate, cherry, minerals, florals, vanilla, toasted oak and long finish of ripe dark fruit, florals and vanilla. Rich and full bodied wine. So rich and decadent. Ready to drink now. $80 at B-21
