“The brushed velvet appearance carries over to the texture on the palate.”

Decanter • 94 / 100

<p>"Rich and velvety red in colour with deep violet reflections, the brushed velvet appearance carries over to the texture on the palate. A good lineup of fruit flavours are joined by sweet softness through the mid-palate that widens things out rather than dips, and there's a slow build to the finish."</p>

“A deliciously juicy wine.”

Wine Enthusiast • 94 / 100

<p>"With vineyards in the southern Margaux village of Cantenac, this estate has produced a deliciously juicy wine. The structure follows a straight line between the tannins and the intense fruit and acidity. The wine should age well."</p>

“A very suave, polished Margaux.”

James Suckling • 93 / 100

<p>"A very suave, polished Margaux that delivers iodine and dark-stone aromas and a wealth of ripe, plush dark fruit that follows through to the palate in attractive, fleshy and juicy mode."</p>

“Warm blackcurrants, black raspberries and mulberries with hints of cedar chest.”

Wine Advocate • 92 / 100

<p>"The 2016 Prieure-Lichine has a medium to deep garnet-purple color 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 flavors and earthy sparks framed by ripe grainy tannins, finishing long and refreshing."</p>
