Tasted blind at Farr Vintners 2007 Bordeaux tasting. There is always one wine that comes out of nowhere and makes a mockery of previous judgement. I give you 2007 Prieure-Lichine! It has an elegant bouquet with briary, tobacco and autumn leaves, decent vigor and definition with fine lift. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, harmonious and focused with a caressing blackberry, cedar and pencil lead finish that leaves you wanting another sip. I will endeavor to re-taste this to verify just how good it is.
Attractive aromas of mushrooms, forest fruits and sweet tobacco follow through to a medium body, fine tannins and a fresh finish.
