Jeb Dunnuck: A classy, focused beauty from the upper limestone plateau on the Right Bank, the 2025 Château Clos De Boüard relies on more Cabernet Franc than usual and shows it in its gorgeous perfume of ripe black cherries, framboise, graphite, spring flowers, and chalky minerality. On the palate, it's medium-bodied, with ripe tannins and beautiful overall balance."

The Wine Cellar Insider: Packed with layers of lush, creamy, polished, energetic, black cherries, plums, licorice, chocolate, and spices, the wine is fresh, sweet, and vibrant, leaving you with layers of ripe, polished cherries, and pit fruits, with a lushly-textured, fruity finish. Drink from 2028-2045."

Jane Anson: Limestone dominant in architecture, delivering salted cracker and pumice stone, this is very pretty with some lovely blueberry and raspberry juice that kicks in through the mid palate, has plenty of the vintage style of fresh acidities and bright fruits, mouthwatering on the finish, measured and skilful."
