Le Blanc De Prieuré Lichine 2023

The winery Château Prieuré‑Lichine is a historic estate in Bordeaux, originally founded as a Benedictine priory, revitalised in the 20th century by wine‑merchant Alexis Lichine, and today owned by the Ballande group. 

The “Le Blanc du Château Prieuré‑Lichine” is the estate’s small‑scale white cuvée: it comes from vines replanted in 1990 on a parcel in Arsac, intended to produce a dry, elegant and fresh white wine, in the tradition of classic Bordeaux whites.

Appearance: pale golden-yellow with silver reflections, crystal-clear and bright. 

Nose: citrus aromas (grapefruit, lemon zest), exotic and white fruits (pear, ripe peach), sometimes floral notes and mineral or lightly herbal touches. 

Palate: fresh lively attack, elegant acidity, fine and refined texture, evolving towards juicy fruity flesh and a clean, refreshing finish.

Food Pairing: ideal with seafood carpaccios or tartares, fish, shellfish, fresh cheeses; also great with light dishes, salads, or summer cuisine to highlight the wine’s freshness and citrus notes. 

Serving Temperature: between 10 and 12 °C.
