Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: Tasted blind at Farr Vintners 2007 Bordeaux tasting. There is always one wine that comes out of nowhere and makes a mockery of previous judgement. I give you 2007 Prieure-Lichine! It has an elegant bouquet with briary, tobacco and autumn leaves, decent vigor and definition with fine lift. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, harmonious and focused with a caressing blackberry, cedar and pencil lead finish that leaves you wanting another sip. I will endeavor to re-taste this to verify just how good it is.

Producer Information

Chateau Prieuré-Lichine’s vast vineyard holdings (70 hectares) are located on some of the best gravelly outcrops in all five communes of the Margaux appellation. Owned by the Ballande group since June 1999, this estate is currently undergoing a major transformation in order to enhance the reputation of its superb terroir even further. The vine density at Prieuré-Lichine is quite high, and the vineyard is carefully managed plot by plot. The grapes are completely picked by hand into small crates and carefully gone over on a sorting table prior to crushing. Only the ripest, healthiest grapes are used. Malolactic fermentation takes place in barrel. The entire winemaking process is devoted to bringing out the charm, elegance and finesse characteristic of the finest wines in the Margaux appellation.
