Château Prieuré-Lichine 2018 layers pure cassis and blackberry fruit with lifted floral tones and warm spice, all carried by vibrant acidity. The palate is concentrated yet refined, with polished, persistent tannins that give structure without heaviness and a long, savory finish. A focused, ageworthy Margaux that will gain in complexity with time in bottle.

Château Prieuré-Lichine is the estate’s grand vin, a Fourth Growth Margaux red built primarily on Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and a touch of Petit Verdot, drawn from a mosaic of gravel soils spread across the appellation. Classically styled yet polished, it’s known for its supple, velvety tannins, floral and dark-fruit aromatics, and a refined, elegant structure that can age for decades in top vintages while expressing the hallmark finesse of Margaux.
