2022 Château Le Prieuré

The 2022 Le Prieuré is another magnificent wine from one of Saint-Émilion’s most under the radar properties. Dark blue/purplish fruit, gravel, spice, menthol and lavender are all finely delineated. As always, Le Prieuré is a wine of cool sophistication and finesse. Clean mineral notes extend the finish effortlessly. Superb.

Exhibiting high-toned aromas of dark berries, balsamic cherries and fruit compote, the 2022 Le Prieuré is medium to full-bodied, rich and fleshy, with a ripe, heady core of fruit, supple tannins and a saline finish. Calon Ségur's Vincent Millet has big plans for this estate, so it will be an address to follow closely.
