2019 Chateau Prieure Lichine Margaux Petite Sirah Blood orange

Blood orange

and it has a rocking core of sweet fruit balanced by ripe tannin's and nicely integrated acidity

barrel-aged style that offers silken texture

expressive fruit with a mineral presence

though there is a healthy dose of Merlot (70/30) here too and you feel it on the palate

2019 Chateau Prieure Lichine Margaux Petite Sirah Blood orange95 points, Vinous "The 2019 Prieur Lichine is impeccable. Creamy, layered and resonant in the glass, the 2019 hits all the right notes. Sweet red cherry plum, lavender, rose petal, spice, mint and blood orange all build effortlessly. Over the last handful of years Prieur Lichine has been the single most under the radar wine in Margaux. The 2019 is another fine edition. Class, polish and sensuality make Prieur Lichine absolutely irresistible." Antonio
