2023 vintage. Medium body. Plenty of tannic punch with dark-fruited counter-balance. $26.50 a bottle resto cost. Would have picked it up but have 6 cheap chicken BDX's I prefer more than this. Not too shabby for the ca$hi$h tho. 7.8.26. — 4 days ago

1hr+ decant. Medium red color with burnt edges. Flowers and cow shit dominate the nose. Lovely texture with a ton of terroir and character on the palate. Cigar box, cedar, and pencil lead throughout. Medium plus finish. Always a fav! — a month ago

This is a very well made wine drinking at its peak right now. It still has lovely primary aromas and flavors of cassis, black cherry and cedar but is now showing more tertiary notes of dried violet, forest floor, leather, mushroom and tobacco. Good balance of fruity with acidity, velvety medium tannin and full body framed by 13.5%abv. Very satisfying with beef tenderloin. — 2 months ago

2019 vintage. 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon. The good news is that I have another unexpected good experience with a Diam cork this week (Diam 5 in this case), praise the Lord! (and I would never have bought the bottle if I had known in advance it had a Diam cork). 2019 is one of my favourite vintages for Prieuré-Lichine, and the second wine is pretty good too. More Merlot-dominated and easy-drinking compared to the grand vin, but a most pleasurable Margaux for a very reasonable price (27 euros in their shop, I sell it a little cheaper even). Smooth and elegant, and another fine Bordeaux value. Abv 13,5%. — 13 days ago

Good, but a little thin and anonymous — gravel and lavender were the flavors I liked. No way no how worth the price! But always glad to try something new. — 21 days ago

Wine tastes better when you've got a fishing pole in your hand. Enjoyed this on the lake.
Juicy, fruity, chewy, tannic.

This was drinking beautifully with its black fruits, plum, graphite, vanilla, spice, leather & tobacco. Still on the youthful side that will continue to develop for many years. — 2 days ago

Kurt Schuster

9.4

Silky tanins, elegant understated expression. Warm nose of dried flowers, lavender, dusty hot day. Bright taste, tannins are silky and coat the tongue but also disappear so you can enjoy your food. Sharp rose, pomegranate, dry and bold. Baked mixed fruits. Cuts through lamb chops and short rib heavy flavors and holds it own.  — 22 days ago

Decanted for 4 hours and was floral with hints of spice. Smoothed out over the evening to lush flavors of plum, cherry, blackberry and blueberries. Finished with lite taste of tobacco and old leather. — a month ago
