Château La Fleur de Boüard hosts study days, executive committees, residential seminars, weddings, birthdays and christenings, with up to 120 guests seated and about 180 standing in its largest room. The estate receives one event at a time. It is a wine property in the Lalande-de-Pomerol appellation, at 12 Bertineau in Néac, ten minutes from Saint-Émilion.
Seminars and company events
The business offer is built for study days, CODIR and COMEX meetings and residential seminars. Four rooms can be set up as theatre, classroom, boardroom or banquet. All are listed with high-speed Wi-Fi, large projection screens and flip charts. For seminars the estate includes a projector, sound system, tables, chairs, linen, cloakrooms and DJ lighting, plus access to the terrace and park. Breaks, lunch, a cocktail, dinner, an after-work drink and accommodation can be added.
Team building is organized around wine: guided tours of the vat room and barrel cellars, a sound and light show inside the cellar, and tastings of the estate's red and white wines. The estate also notes that natural light and the barrel cellar's acoustics suit hybrid meetings with remote participants.
Weddings and receptions
Couples can hold a secular ceremony among the vines, serve drinks on the panoramic terrace, then dine under the 28 suspended vats of the Cuvier Emile Peynaud, with dancing allowed until 4 a.m. The estate states that it hosts one event at a time, so the site is fully private. The barrel cellar next door works as a covered fallback for the ceremony or cocktail, or as a children's area. Birthdays are offered for 10 to 120 guests, and christening lunches use the enclosed garden.
Rooms and capacities
The Cuvier Emile Peynaud, named after the oenologist, covers 230 m² and takes about 120 seated and up to 150 in its listed maximum, or 180 for a cocktail. The Chais du Plus, the barrel cellar where the wines age, covers 115 m² for up to 80, with its own sound and lighting. The Maison de la Fleur offers a 50 m² room for 35. Le Pressoir Saint Georges, a 19th-century winegrower's house next to the château, offers 70 m² for 50. The park and the panoramic terrace can also be hired for an outdoor cocktail.
Accommodation
Eleven bedrooms are spread over three houses. The Maison de la Fleur, a 19th-century house rated four stars, has three bedrooms, two lounges including a billiard room, two dining rooms, a large kitchen and an enclosed garden with a pool. Le Pressoir Saint-Georges has five bedrooms for about 17 people, with a private sauna and hot tub. Le Pavillon, a renovated annex, has three bedrooms.
Catering
The caterer is free: no supplier is imposed, and the estate can recommend partners. It also runs its own catering based on fresh local produce. On the property, Les Chais de la Fleur, a seasonal private table open from spring to autumn, seats 60 and takes group bookings for business meals.
History and setting
Hubert de Boüard, co-owner of Château Angélus, bought the 25-hectare vineyard in 1998. It now covers 29 hectares on a slope facing the Pomerol crus, near the confluence of the Dordogne and the Isle. The estate pairs a stone chartreuse with a contemporary cellar building.
Getting there
The estate gives these times: 15 minutes from Libourne station, 10 minutes from Saint-Émilion, about 45 minutes from Bordeaux and 50 minutes from Bordeaux-Mérignac airport.
