Chateau Prieure-Lichine 2022 Margaux Grand Cru Classe, Bordeaux

“The 2022 Prieuré-Lichine has a Margaux nose moulded by the warm growing season, exotic and plush, Medjool dates intermixed with black cherries and cassis fruit. A bit heady. The palate is ripe and a little New World in style, plush black plum laced with graphite, rich and heady but just a little overdone and brash towards the finish. Perhaps it will calm down with time?”—Neal Martin, Vinous
