Château Prieuré-Lichine
Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend
Continuing with the May Cabernet tasting. CS 55/Merlot 40/Petit Verdot 5. An aristocratic sexy nose of blue fruits and blackberry with violet and tobacco. A gorgeous seductive palate. Medium weight. A joy to drink and at its peak.

May 30th, 2017Perfect with Filet. Balanced but made for the long haul. Taut tannins and earthy fruit combine for long, satisfying finish.

Dec 19th, 2021This wine is drinking perfectly right now. Had it side by side with a 2005 Gazin and the Lichine was much better.

May 11th, 2020Excellent example of a well aged Margaux. On the nose, leather, rose petals, graphite. In the mouth, secondary aged characteristics with leather, blood. Still has some remaining tannins. Good acid and long finish.
