Château Prieuré Lichine 2022 - Primeurs

Bordeaux - Margaux - 4e Cru Classé - Red Wine -

Château Prieuré-Lichine 2022 delivers an elegant and expressive interpretation of Margaux. Classified as a Fourth Growth in 1855, the estate benefits from gravel and sandy-gravel soils across some of the finest sectors of the appellation, promoting aromatic finesse and silky tannins. The well-balanced 2022 vintage produces a generous, harmonious and refined wine.

Tasting Notes

Appearance: deep garnet with ruby highlights, brilliant.
Nose: expressive and seductive, revealing ripe black fruits (blackcurrant, blackberry), black cherry, complemented by floral notes (violet), gentle spices, cocoa and subtle oak.
Palate: broad and velvety. Generous yet perfectly balanced, supported by fine, ripe and silky tannins. Natural freshness brings elegance and length to a long, refined and gourmand finish.

Terroir & Blend

The vineyards of Château Prieuré-Lichine lie on gravel and sandy-gravel soils across prime Margaux sectors. The 2022 blend is led by Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by Merlot and a touch of Petit Verdot, delivering structure, roundness and aromatic complexity.

Winemaking & Aging

Hand-harvested grapes with meticulous sorting. Parcel-by-parcel vinification in temperature-controlled vats with carefully managed macerations to preserve fruit purity and tannin finesse. Aged in French oak barrels with a measured proportion of new oak, seamlessly integrated.

Food Pairings

Perfect with grilled or roasted red meats, rack of lamb, duck breast, fine poultry or delicately sauced dishes. Serve at 60–64 °F (16–18 °C). Decant for 1–2 hours when young.

12bouteilles.com Recommendation

Château Prieuré-Lichine 2022 is a charming and age-worthy Margaux. Enjoyable now with aeration, it will evolve gracefully gaining complexity and refined tertiary nuances.
