In a few words ...

Château Prieuré-Lichine is a 4th Cru Classé from 1855 and produces a wine that is very Margaux at heart. Generally quite fine and elegant, it can be kept for up to 30 years in its best years. James Suckling (94) / Figaro Vin (17.5)

Tasting notes

Appearance

Dense, dark garnet color, drawing on purple in its youth.

Aroma

For the Margaux appellation, we find black fruits, such as blackcurrant or blackcurrant, sometimes cooked, and an empyreumatic that gives off aromas of roasted coffee or licorice.

Wine Empyreumatic | Fruity | Roasted

Taste

On the palate the best Margaux are those who have perfectly integrated their tannins in their structure, giving roundness. We find the aromas of the nose namely black fruits and tertiary flavors such as leather, vanilla.
