Good to know: the last born in the family, Le Lion de La Fleur de Boüard is made from the estate’s young vines. It has been Château La Fleur de Boüard’s second wine since 2011 and it is gently fermented in the same way as the main wine in inverted truncated cone-shaped tanks before being vinified using gravity alone.

Château La Fleur de Boüard comes from the profound belief of its owner, Hubert de Boüard de Laforest, in the rich potential of Lalande-de-Pomerol terroirs. Supported by his daughter, Coralie, he applies his technical and oenological know-how in a new, environmentally friendly approach to wine growing. With precision and sustainable purpose, the de Boüard family makes wines with outstanding elegance that compare with the greatest Bordeaux appellations. His daughter, Coralie, shares her father’s passion for vine husbandry and making wine and helps him on the estate. Their technical director Philippe Nunes, adds to the strengths of this team. As the synergies within the team grew, a family ambition emerged to pamper this estate with all the recognition it deserves.
