[SOLD-OUT] Chateau Prieure-Lichine Margaux 2005

Wine Front 94 points!
“4th growth Margaux from a splendid vintage. This Château flies under the radar a bit, perhaps. Sweet dried herbs, perfume, red fruits, a little cedar. Light to medium bodied, graceful and succulent, fine grained tannin, a bit of tobacco and a pretty finish of fine length. So pure and classy. In the zone too, though no hurry. ”
Gary Walsh, Wine Front, March 2017

"The finest Prieure-Lichine I have ever tasted, the sensational 2005 has unquestionably benefitted from the improvements made at this property as well as the consultation work of Stephane Derenoncourt. Its dense purple color is accompanied by a glorious perfume of forest floor, blackberries, incense, and cassis. Opulent, with sweet tannin for the vintage, excellent purity, and a savory, broad, expansive mouthfeel that lingers on the palate, it possesses the delicacy of a terrific Margaux as well as enough concentration and power to give it an extra dimension. This wine should be drinkable in 4-5 years, and last for 25 or more. Bravo!"
