| 2009 vs 2010 may turn out to be as debatable among wine lovers as the seminal vintages 1959 vs 1961. We experienced the same dilemma tasting these two elegant La Fleur de Bouards side by side today with the winemaker. You be the judge, take home a 6pack of each and have some fun! This state-of-the-art winery works entirely by gravity. “This estate is the reference point for the highest quality attainable in Lalande de Pomerol” Robert Parker
2009 La Fleur de Bouard $420 6pack93 Points Robert Parker “Over-achievers in short, the 2009 La Fleur de Bouard is fabulous, with notes of blueberry, plum, licorice, white flowers and camphor followed by a full-bodied, well-endowed, textured, supple wine. Stunningly concentrated, yet silky and seductive, it should be drunk over the next 10+ years.” 2010 La Fleur de Bouard $360 6pack92 Points Robert Parker “beautifully pure, voluptuously textured, rich, long and hedonistic and satisfying. Drink it over the next 10+ years.” Also available, the estate’s luxury cuvee ~ the 100% Merlot that is bottled unfined and unfiltered. 2010 La Fleur de Bouard Le Plus $1200 6pack94+ Points Robert Parker “This is a beauty, a full-throttle, pedal-to-the-metal Lalande de Pomerol that is impossible to believe comes from a less heralded appellation. The standard of excellence for Lalande de Pomerol is Hubert de Bouard’s 50-acre property, over half of it located on the highly prized Neac plateau, which consists of clay, sand and gravel sub-soils.” |

A King’s Ransom of Bordeaux!
Magnum Fever Continues!
Fabulous Magnums to Enjoy for Many Years to Come! Ex-Chateau, original wood cases
2006 Chateau Lynch Bages $2340 case / $390 magnum
94+ Wine Advocate “Tasted blind at Southwold ’06 Bordeaux tasting. I have always felt that the Lynch Bages ’06 was one of the real treasures of the vintage and this blind tasting verifies that belief. It is ripe and very pure on the backward nose with subtle touches of tobacco and cigar box. Refined and understated. The palate is full-bodied, very well balanced, toasty new oak but there is sufficient ripe black tarry fruit to support it. Great weight and persistency on the structured, dense, masculine, edgy finish. Excellent. Returning after 15 minutes I find this so elegant and brimming with tension. Do not under-estimate this Lynch. Tasted January 2010.” Drink 2014-2039
2005 Chateau La Lagune $1320 case / $220 magnum
95 Points Robert Parker “This is the finest wine made at this estate since 1982, and possibly the greatest La Lagune of all time. Its dense ruby/purple color is followed by an exquisite bouquet of spice box, incense, sweet unsmoked cigar tobacco, black cherry liqueur, forest floor, and subtle toasty oak. Reminiscent of a Cote de Nuits grand cru blended with a top-notch Bordeaux, this beauty possesses silky tannins, a broad, savory, expansive mouthfeel, and intrinsic precision as well as elegance. Moreover, this fabulous wine is a relative bargain for the vintage. Seamless and prodigious! Anticipated maturity: 2010-2025.”
