Critic reviews
"The 2024 Prieuré-Lichine offers violet-infused black fruit on the nose. It is simple and lacks a bit of bandwidth but remains clean. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannins, a bit hard on the mid-palate, with a peppery finish. This is just missing a bit of elegance and complexity, but it should provide 10 to 12 years of drinking pleasure."
Neal Martin, April 2025, Vinous.com
"The 2024 Prieuré-Lichine is an attractive wine, but it does show the lighter side of the year, accented by the fact that Prieuré-Lichine is never a big wine. Dark red/black fruit, mocha, licorice and spice all meld together in the glass, with good mid-palate pliancy and promising balance. Tasted two times."
Antonio Galloni, April 2025, Vinous.com
"Fresh and nicely herbal on the nose, showing dark cherries, violets and some currants. Crunchy and tight-grained with medium body and a linear finish. Tannins are chewy but not overpowering."
James Suckling, May 2025, JamesSuckling.com
"Smartly constructed, with a slow unrolling of the blackberry fruits, sweet raspberry and strawberry puree, sage and white pepper spice, a touch of leafiness through the mid palate but fragrant and charming. Harvest 26 September to 9 October. 35% new oak. Upscore potential in bottle."
