critic reviews

89-91/100Lisa Perrotti-Brown,The Wine Independent

Deep garnet-purple colored. Opens with notes of juicy black plums and red currant jelly, leading to touches of fallen leaves, bay leaves, and graphite. The light to medium-bodied palate is chewy and refreshing with just enough savory-laced fruit and a firm finish.

86-88/100Neal Martin,Vinous

The 2024 Prieuré-Lichine offers violet-infused black fruit on the nose. It is simple and lacks a bit of bandwidth but remains clean. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannins, a bit hard on the mid-palate, with a peppery finish. This is just missing a bit of elegance and complexity, but it should provide 10 to 12 years of drinking pleasure.

90/100Jane Anson,Inside Bordeaux

Smartly constructed, with a slow unrolling of the blackberry fruits, sweet raspberry and strawberry puree, sage and white pepper spice, a touch of leafiness through the mid palate but fragrant and charming. Harvest 26 September to 9 October. 35% new oak. Upscore potential in bottle.
