Good not great, a little musky and bretty, the vintage probably saved it as the deep red fruits and prefect tannin push most if the funk out though it still lingers. #brettsucks #bouard #bellevue — 11 years ago

Super cool under the radar Chard from a vdp around Bergerac made by Hubert de Bouard of Fleur de Bouard. Shows like amazing Burg. 10% each of Sauv Blanc & Petite Manseng with the 80% Chard. Focused green apple and Asian pear meld with white flowers and toast notes. Great balance. Wish I could find the 2012 state side, I bought this in France. Best deal I have ever encountered with Chard. — 10 years ago

Look, I have no relevant experience with this, but AFAICT, this wine has held up really well over 11 years. It's bright, creamy, balanced, slightly oaky, with an apple character that has almost no hint of oxidation. It's like a ripe pear or something. Anyway, I enjoyed it, and for sure it wasn't a wasted $35 or whatever I paid for it at auction. So...WIN! — 4 years ago
