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.- Lisa Perrotti-Brown (03/2019)

The 2016 Prieuré-Lichine has an open bouquet of black fruit infused with violet petals and iris. The palate is sweet on the entry, offering blackberry, raspberry, cedar and tobacco notes, and quite harmonious in the mouth. Probably one of the most approachable Margaux wines this vintage. Fine.- Neal Martin (01/2019)
