Château de Pressac is a historic Grand Cru Classé estate in Saint-Émilion, with origins dating back to the Middle Ages. The château is perched on a limestone plateau overlooking the Dordogne River, offering breathtaking views and a terroir that plays a crucial role in the wine’s complexity. Beyond its winemaking significance, Château de Pressac holds a place in French history, as it was the site where the English forces officially surrendered in 1453, marking the end of the Hundred Years' War.
 
The estate has undergone significant transformation under the ownership of Jean-François and Dominique Quenin, who acquired it in 1997. They have modernized the vineyard while respecting its heritage, improving both viticultural and winemaking techniques. Today, Château de Pressac spans 36 hectares, cultivated with an unusually diverse mix of grape varieties for the region, contributing to the unique character of its wines. The château’s commitment to quality has earned it a strong reputation, culminating in its official classification as a Grand Cru Classé in 2012.

94 Points, Decanter

Sweet cherry and violets on the nose. Lovely smooth texture with fruit that has great precision and mouth watering acidity - strawberry, red cherries and redcurrants. It's fresh and fruity with a texture that just gently grips and holds interest. I like this and the long finish too. Just the barest hint of freshly picked mint leaves on the finish adding a cooling element to the final impression.-GH

The 2019 de Pressac is just as compelling from bottle as it was from barrel. A complex, mesmerizing wine, Pressac offers up an exotic mélange of black cherry, plum, chocolate, new leather, licorice, spice and menthol. All the elements are so well balanced. Espresso, lavender, dried rose petal and cedar linger on the complex, beautifully delineated finish. The 2019 is seriously impressive. It's as simple as that.-AG

Very beautiful aromas of redcurrants and ripe plums with bark and moss, following through to a medium to full body with firm, creamy tannins and hints of salt and fresh herbs. So attractive now, but much better in 2025 and onwards.
