Description
Robert Parker: With the highly respected Right Bank consultant
Stephane Derenoncourt providing advice, Prieure-Lichine has moved
to a complete, savory, and for lack of a better description, broad,
lush, sexy style. This has always been a wine that was drinkable at
an early age, but I think they are building more texture and flesh
into the wine, as well as more concentration, without losing the
estate’s early appeal. The 2006 is an outstanding wine, with
complex notes of spring flowers, forest floor, sweet black
currants, and earth. Medium to full-bodied, flavorful, without a
trace of astringency or hardness, this is a succulent, fleshy wine
to drink over the next 15 or more years.
