By far the best fully mature Prieure-Lichine over the last 20 years, the dark garnet-colored 1990 has a very fragrant nose of spice box, Christmas fruitcake, cedar, tobacco, smoke, and jammy red as well as black currants flavors. The wine is medium-bodied, quite ripe, with low acidity, a lush expansiveness, and fine purity in its lusty, heady finish. Anticipated maturity: Now-2008. Last tasted, 3/01.
Lots of ripe fruit in this wine. Dark ruby color. Pretty aromas of plums, spices and cherries. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a chocolate, barley and earth aftertaste.--1990 Bordeaux retrospective. Drink now. 25,000 cases made. James Suckling, Wine Spectator 2000
The deeply colored 1990, also rich, deep, and expansively flavored, offers a spicy, cedary, fruitcake-scented nose, splendidly ripe, sweet, expansive flavors, excellent depth and length, as well as a full-bodied, lush finish. Anticipated maturity: 1995-2005. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate # 85
Informazioni sul produttore
After 50 years under the direction of the Lichine family, this leading Margaux estate entered a new chapter in 1999 when négociant Ballande took the reins, continuing the property’s previous upward trajectory.
