TN: 2009 Ch. Prieure-Lichine

En magnum. Medium purple.

Complex aromatic profile - cedar, blue and purple flowers, woodsmoke, rich earth, candied black fruits.

On the palate, flavors of blackberry and boysenberry appear at the silky smooth Margaux intro and resound throughout, with earthiness quickly appearing as well as graphite . Fine french oak tannins encapsulate the tasting experience. Overall the first impression on the mouth is more impressive the the drying experience of the finish.

90, drinking nicely now.
