Critics Ratings
‘This beautiful Margaux might not exceed the 2015 but it is undeniably doing a good job of keeping up. It combines elegance and richness, with extremely well extracted deep fruits and plenty of layers of finesse in the form of charcoal, slate, grilled almonds and cloves. An excellent Prieuré with good ageing potential. 2027 - 2050’ - Jane Anson, Decanter, 95/100 (Apr 2017)
‘A very suave, polished Margaux that delivers iodine and dark-stone aromas and a wealth of ripe, plush dark fruit that follows through to the palate in attractive, fleshy and juicy mode. Try from 2022.’ - James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com, 93/100 (Feb 2019)
