I have long believed that the 2002 vintage in Bordeaux was pretty mediocre. But the wines I tasted this year is rarely disappointed me. 2002 is very beautiful, and, luck, prices often remained affordable.
Giant Casino d'Arcachon proposed Chateau Prieuré Lichine 2006, Margaux - Grand Cru in 1855 - at the cost of the second wine (Le Cloitre du Prieuré Lichine), 14,95 €: labeling error. I did not do pray, I took everything. My favorite early.
Besides the start FAV tomorrow at Carrefour and Casino. I'll go for a ride to buy a few bottles to drink right away, that's all.

I opened the bottle a little more than two hours in advance. S'échapèrent charming fragrance of the neck right away, which I handed over the cap backwards.
In the glass, the dress is pretty clear and the edge of the disc takes on red-orange. The nose is nice and fairly typical of the wines of Pessac: very ripe fruit, notes of roasted coffee, cakes and dry woodland.
palate, the attack is a bit light, the wine certainly lack of concentration. Tannins are still present and this gives a good length. Final figs, cocoa, perhaps.
A well-structured wine that will delight the palate and the approval nicely barbecued sausage tonight.
The note for this wine LGDD: 15/20.
And of course, your comments are always welcome.
Cheers, NL
