Falstaff 
Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Feines Cassis, dunkle Waldbeeren, zart nach Heidelbeeren und Mandarinenzesten. Saftig, elegant und frisch strukturiert, feine Tannine, lebendiger, fruchtiger Stil, zartes Nugat im Abgang, hat Energie und Länge, ein vielversprechender Speisenwein.

A very fine and polished PL with blackcurrant, fresh-herb, terracotta and crunchy-seed character. Medium body, fine and focused tannins and a flavorful finish. Lots there in a classic way.

Currants, tobacco, cocoa, currants, black cherries, spice, and flowers shine in the nose. On the palate, the wine is soft, silky, and fresh with sweetness, energy, and touches of licorice, chocolate, mint, and black cherries. The finish, with its lift, and fruit is quite nice this vintage. The wine blends 64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31% Merlot, and 5% Petit Verdot. Drink from 2029-2055. 92-94 Pts.

The 2023 Château Prieuré-Lichine checks in as 64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31% Merlot, and the rest Petit Verdot, raised in 35% new oak. Its deeper ruby hue is followed by gorgeous aromatics of cassis and black raspberries as well as classy oak and savory flower-like nuances. With medium-bodied richness, a supple, elegant mouthfeel, and ripe tannins, it's very much in the more mid-weight style of the vintage yet has tons of character, complexity, and length. It's going to need 4-5 years in the cellar, but it’s clearly a terrific effort.
