| Over het wijnhuis | Château Le Prieuré heeft een geschiedenis die teruggaat naar 1696, al ging het toen door het leven onder de naam Cru des Cordeliers. Sinds 2021 is het in handen van Les Terroirs de Suravenir, een Franse verzekeringsmaatschappij die ook Château Calon-Ségur in Saint-Estèphe, Château Vray Croix de Gay in Pomerol, Château Siaurac in Lalande-de-Pomerol bezit. Château Le Prieuré is aan de rechteroever te vinden, in Saint-Émilion om precies te zijn. De wijngaarden liggen op een steenworp afstand van Château Trotte Vieille en Château Pavie Macquin. |

| Awards | "The 2020 Le Prieure is a blend of 83% Merlot and 17% Cabernet Franc, with 14.3% alcohol. It is aging for an anticipated 16 months in French oak barriques, 35% new. Deep purple-black colored, it needs a little swirling and coaxing to reveal fragrant notes of lilacs, underbrush and sandalwood over a core of Morello cherries and plum preserves, plus a waft of woodsmoke. The medium to full-bodied palate has beautiful energy and tension, featuring layers of juicy red and black fruits with a plush texture, finishing long and perfumed. What a stunner!" - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate "Aromas of ripe dark fruit, crushed walnuts, chocolate and overturned earth. Medium- to full-bodied, structured and meaty. It has firm tannins and a polished texture. Ripe yet fresh with a crunchy fruit character and creamy finish. From organically grown grapes. Try after 2024. - James Suckling "83% Merlot, 17% Cabernet Franc. Lively, lifted and floral. Really has a spring in its step. Juicy fruit on the palate with a lovely ‘natural’ edge. Firm and dry on the finish with good persistence. Classically framed but ebullient at the same time. (JL)" - Jancis Robinson "The 2020 Le Prieuré is so elegant and nuanced. As always, readers will find a Saint-Émilion built on linear intensity and vibrancy more than size. Blue/purplish fruit, lavender, spice, mocha and crushed rocks are all beautifully delineated. The clean, intensely mineral finish is absolutely striking. This is such a gorgeous wine." - Vinous "Juicy and alive on the palate, this has a real zing to it giving an energy many don't have because of the heat, alcohol or tannins. It's lightly framed in terms of texture and weight, the tannins integrated and fine but this is still concentrated with a core of ripe fruit and lots of acidity. Sculpted and fresh, feels like they have treaded delicately when it was easy to overdo in 2020. Vibrant and punchy yet reined in with a sense of sleekness, glamour and classicism. Excellent job and a top buy, also one of the few that feels like it's settling in the bottle already." - Decanter |
