Score 16/20 · Drink 2013-2022, Jancis Robinson MW, Feb 2014
Thick crimson. Rather sweet and well balanced on the nose. Medium interest and body but great harmony. Bit drying on the end. (JR)

Score 17/20 · Drink 2012-2022, Richard Hemming MW, jancisrobinson.com, Mar 2012
Proper black fruit with that mannerly structure of the Médoc and some just-emerging fragrance. Only just opening up now. (RH)

Score 17/20 · Drink 2010-2022, Julia Harding MW, jancisrobinson.com, Feb 2009
Sweetly subtle spice. Smooth, elegant and fresh with moderate fruit depth. Good balance and finesse in a modest style. (JH)
About the producer

Prieure Lichine
After 50 years under the direction of the Lichine family, this leading Margaux estate entered a new chapter in 1999 when négociant Ballande took the reins, continuing the property’s previous upward trajectory.
