Margaux, 4ème Grand Cru Classé
Château Prieuré-Lichine is a celebrated Fourth Growth estate in the heart of Margaux, known for producing wines of elegance, balance, and aromatic finesse. Originally founded by Benedictine monks in the 12th century, the château gained new acclaim in the mid-20th century under the stewardship of Alexis Lichine, whose vision and passion helped shape the modern identity of the estate.
Today, Prieuré-Lichine’s 70 hectares of gravelly soils are planted predominantly to Cabernet Sauvignon, with Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc contributing nuance and depth. The wine is quintessential Margaux—layered and perfumed, with cassis, violet, cedar and graphite on the nose, and a silky, finely structured palate that carries through to a long, mineral-laced finish.
Modern in polish but true to its terroir, Château Prieuré-Lichine is a benchmark for Margaux at its most refined. Approachable in its youth but capable of graceful aging.
Boccaccio Cellars offers real time shipping rates at checkout. These are heavily subsidised rates directly from Australia Post and will vary depending on your postcode.
Unfortunately, due to the ever increasing costs of postage we are unable to offer free shipping any longer. Postal increases have seen the average box of wine range from $30-$60, which can represent up to 500% of the cost of the average bottle of wine.
Your postal costs are calculated on the following factors:
- Where in Australia you are shipping to (Where rural postcodes obviously attract a higher charge)
- What in Australia you are shipping (Beer and water for example, are calculated in real time without any additional subsidy. This is because the margins for these products are minimal). Dry goods attract a discounted flat fee of $12 per carton (Calculated by gross weight).
Pickups on all items are encouraged.
