Wine Spectator Review:
Spicy, with super fruit and an opulent nose. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a long, juicy finish. Love the cashmerelike texture. 93-96 points.

Parker Review:
The 2009 La Fleur de Bouard (made from yields of 45 hectoliters per hectare 13.5% alcohol) is a Merlot-based wine with brilliant purity, abundant black cherry, plum, and boysenberry fruit, extraordinary density, decent acids, and high tannins. This full-bodied, concentrated, impressively endowed 2009 should age nicely for 10-15 years. At a recent tasting of the 2000 vintage, I was reminded of how great this estates luxury cuvee can be. It was off the charts in terms of richness and personality. 91-93 points.
