Château Prieuré-Lichine

Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2015

INCREDIBLE!! 💃🏻🕺. So happy. Store a wine for 10 years and the secret revealed. Doesn’t always happen, but here it did! Intense dark cherry, deeply laced with exquisite cigar, earthy minerality. Lead pencil. Yep it’s true, it is there. Still so intense and vibrant. Perfectly made wine. Should give the winemaker a hug! Great experience. The only bad thing is that I had to drink it by myself. My wine partner is in St Luis and experiencing an Opus One from 1982 😳. Wine, what a wonderful thing. — 16 days ago

Clos du Prieuré Monopole Vougeot Chardonnay 2014

9.0

A monopole from the red heartland of Vougeot from the excellent ‘14 vintage (for white), my expectation was high.

Layers of lemon curd, pear skin, and crushed stone clouded by bruised apple and hazelnut on the nose. The palate is linear, saline, and mineral and has superb tension - maybe a bit too much.

Slightly over the hill, but compelling nevertheless. — a day ago
