one of the original ‘Blockers’ (landholders who sold their grapes to larger wineries in the 1950s and 60s)

and crisp apple join with the signature herbal tone of Cabernet Franc

The yields are naturally very low

Enjoyable now but will benefit from further ageing

Chateau Prieuré-Lichine 2014 sunburry one of the original ‘Blockers’The 2014 Prieur Lichine is just as impressive from bottle as it was from barrel. Silky, perfumed, and gracious on the palate, the wine exudes class. Sweet floral and spice notes meld into a core of red stone fruit, and silky tannins and vivid flavours lead into a creamy and inviting finish. Blend: 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot
