Description
"Spanning all five communes of the Margaux appellation, Château Prieuré-Lichine benefits from a rare diversity of terroirs, with 70 hectares that capture the full breadth of the appellation. This mosaic of plots lends the estate a distinctive ability to express both nuance and consistency across vintages.
The 2025 is a confident and characterful release, embracing a richer, denser profile while retaining the silky tannins and elegance expected of Margaux. There is depth here, but also balance, with a polished structure that carries the wine with ease. Well-positioned within the appellation, Prieuré-Lichine continues to deliver a coherent and dependable style, with the 2025 fitting neatly within that trajectory." - Lucie Richard - DIVA Bordeaux
90-92 Points - Neal Martin, Vinous - "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."
