Jeff Leve

Leve Jeff

Lushly textured, deep red fruits, licorice, cocoa, flowers and stone create the makeup. The tannins are soft, polished and round, and the garden-fresh fruit quickly shows a sweetness. And on the finish, there is an interesting touch of salt in the tannins that complements the ripe red berries.

Jean-Marc Quarin

Logo on the cork: AL Dark, glossy, youthful color. Beautifully fine, subtle, and noble nose, underpinned by cherry and floral notes. Delicately fleshy on the attack, silky at mid-palate, the wine melts into a very flavorful and particularly pleasing finish. With this vintage, the cru breaks away from the austerity we had become accustomed to. Long, very good, with class and breed in the texture.

Wine Enthusiast

Roger Voss

90–92. Barrel Sample. Fine tannins and ripe fruit are strong elements in this complex wine. With a solid, dense texture, juicy acidity and a dark core of tannins, it is a wine that will age, so hold until 2023.

Description

The suppleness and complexity of an unmissable Grand Cru Classé from Saint-Émilion

Estate

Since the 16th century, the vineyard of Château Le Prieuré has been cultivated in the heart of Saint-Émilion. Formerly Premier Cru des Cordeliers, it was renamed at the dawn of the 20th century. A Grand Cru Classé de Saint-Émilion since 1955, Château Le Prieuré oversees a stunning vineyard composed of several vine plots. The talented Pénélope Godefroy, oenologist and agronomic engineer, vinifies wines in a harmonious style that reveal the full complexity of the Saint-Émilion terroir.

The vineyard

In conversion to organic farming and following biodynamic practices, Château Le Prieuré has a superb 6.24 ha vineyard divided into 19 parcels, enabling a precise, micro-parcel approach to viticulture to reveal the finest expression of this exceptional terroir of Saint-Émilion.

Blend

Merlot (80%) and Cabernet Franc (20%).
