The La Cloitre Prieure Lichine Margaux 2020 is an exemplar expression of the celebrated Margaux appellation. Inspired by the 12th-century legacy of the Prieuré-Lichine estate, this wine is crafted with utmost precision at every stage. Born of the ideally draining gravelly soil and favourably tempered microclimate of Bordeaux, France, it encapsulates the quintessence of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grape blend. With every sip, expect a cascade of luscious blackcurrant, dark cherry, and velvety tannin notes. The 18-month maturation in oak barrels adds a delicate hint of vanilla, rounding up a sophisticated palate. This bottle epitomises the acumen of Ballarin family and winemaker Stephane Derenoncourt, whose philosophy of minimal intervention and sustainable viticulture empowers the terroir to flourish, sculpting the uniqueness of La Cloitre Prieure Lichine Margaux 2020. Committed to remarkable quality and longevity, this wine continues to evolve in the bottle, promising a compelling journey of sensory discovery for the discerning connoisseur. |

James Suckling (95-96)This is really something with pure blackberry and blueberry character. Chewy yet ultra fine tannins. It goes on and on. Could challenge the great 2016. |
