La Fleur de Boüard
The spearhead of the estate. An intense, deep colour, a nose of red berries, blackcurrant and spice, and soft, silky tannins carried by a long finish.
In the cellar
Made entirely by gravity
The vinification is entirely gravity-fed: the grapes and the wine move under their own weight, without pumping.
