Review:The 1996 is a very good Prieure-Lichine, with some of the vintage's high tannin, but plenty of berry and black currant fruit, Asian spices, and floral scents. A dark ruby-colored wine with purple nuances, this medium-bodied, attractive, spicy, moderately tannic Margaux will require a few years of bottle age, atypical for Prieure-Lichine. Anticipated maturity: 2003-2012.
