Note di degustazione
The 2025 Prieuré-Lichine has a well-defined nose, though it does not quite have the amplitude of some of the over-performing Margaux barrel samples in this vintage. It just needs a bit more ambition. The palate is medium-bodied with a graphite-tinged entry. Edgy tannins, fine depth, structured more than recent vintages and demonstrating more persistence. Good potential—hopefully the aromatics will muster a bit more complexity because the palate deserves it.

Cassis, liquid violets, graphite, and spicy wood all shine on the nose of the 2025 Château Prieuré-Lichine, and it's medium to full-bodied on the palate, with a concentrated, nicely balanced mouthfeel, beautiful tannins, and a great finish. It plays in the focused, seemingly fresher style of the vintage yet shows the riper side of Margaux while still being beautifully balanced and textured.
Well composed, textural and velvety, with currants, herbs and baking spices on the nose. Medium-bodied with fine tannins. Refined texture with substance and harmony. Persistent, focused finish.
The 2025 Prieuré-Lichine is terrific. I won't be surprised if it turns out even better than this note suggests. Floral overtones weave through a core of dark red/purplish fruit, all framed by silky tannins. This is classic Prieuré-Lichine, with perhaps a bit more fruit density than most years. A pretty appealing combination in my book.
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.
