Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend

Dark blackberry fruit with a velvety balanced finish - this was the best of the tasting group.

👃🏻 rose, violette, safran, redberry, kirsch
👄 tannic, coffee, red fruits

A very attractive nose that has a pretty perfume along with earth, damp tobacco leaf and an autumnal smokiness but still has plenty black, just ripe berry fruit. Palate has a light weight frame that carries through some dilute berry fruit, soft tannin with acid leading, drying redcurrant finish.

It tooks 20 year to perfection!

Complex 2004 dark with earthy notes of cedar forest, tobacco and tar. Still elegant and noteworthy.

I have tried several examples of Prieure Lichine over the years. Some were great and others not so good. I was skeptical about 2004 and I shouldn’t have been. What a beautiful example of a mid life Bordeaux that is likely at or near it’s peak. Dry, earthy and tannic with a solid core of fruit. Well done. This can easily last another decade

Nicely balanced now

Nice, dry great body

This was fab! Hope it wasn't too expensive!!
