Note di degustazione
The 2015 Confidences de Prieuré-Lichine is a very pretty second wine. Pliant, supple and inviting, the Confidences is an excellent choice for drinking now and over the next few years. All of the signatures of the Grand Vin come through nicely, but, of course, in miniature. This is a strong showing.

The 2015 Prieure-Lichine has a tightly wound bouquet, crisp and a little leaner than some of its Margaux compadres. It just feels contained at the moment. The palate is medium-bodied with gruff tannin on the entry. There is respectable depth here, but it feels linear and rather predictable towards the blackberry and cedar finish. I would like to see more complexity and personality come through by the time of bottling. It feels a bit bolshie at the moment. Apr 2016, www.robertparker.com
This was the first vintage made in Prieuré-Lichine’s new cellars, all cement vats, and as a result it’s significantly different to the 2014. More precise and pure aromatics, greater depth of fruit, as well as increased weight and persistence on the palate. The fruit has a creamy edge even though there’s still no oak. A lovely wine that brings a smile to your lips.
A slightly earthy edge to the nose with ripe summer berries below. The palate has impressively smooth, ripe summer berries and a vibrant kick of bright acidity firing the finish along. Best from 2021.

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.
