Region: France, Bordeaux, Margaux

Grape variety: Cabernet Sauvignon (35%) & Merlot (65%)

Tasting notes: The modernity and fruitiness of a Second Wine with a savoury and charming structure, recalling the elegance typical of Margaux. Produced from younger vines, it is harvested, vinified and aged with the same care as the Grand Cru. A dominant Merlot blend, which favours roundness and a silky touch on the palate.

Food pairing: Confidences de Prieuré-Lichine can be enjoyed in all circumstances, ideally for the aperitif, a convivial meal, an evening with friends.

Reviews: The Wine Advocate 92 points – ‘The 2016 Prieure-Lichine has a medium to deep garnet-purple colour and a bold, intensely scented nose of warm blackcurrants, black raspberries and mulberries with hints of cedar chest, tobacco, dried herbs and iron ore. Medium-bodied, the palate has bags of class with lovely, vibrant black berries flavours and earthy sparks framed by ripe grainy tannins, finishing long and refreshing.’
