Château Prieuré-Lichine, 2010

€84.10

Chateau Prieure-Lichine 2010 exemplifies the distinct Margaux terroir, skillfully blending dense and intricate Cabernet Sauvignon with opulent Merlot. The wine's precise and pure aromas owe much to the daily temperature fluctuations, particularly cooler nights during harvest. As a top Medoc wine, it possesses remarkable aging potential, rivaling the esteemed years of 1961 and 1982, both known for producing illustrious Bordeaux wines.

"Deep garnet colored, the 2010 Prieure-Lichine opens with notes of sweaty leather, tobacco and underbrush over a core of warm red and black currants and baked plums plus a waft of bay leaves. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is refreshing and chewy with plenty of earthy/savory layers and an herbal finish." - Robert Parker
