Pressac 2020 (750ML)

93-94 JS / 93 DE / 91-93 JD / 88-90 VM

Blackberry, chocolate, walnut and spice with some hazelnut. It’s medium-to full-bodied with creamy tannins and a flavorful finish. I like the transparency and length to this. - James Suckling

A classic and well-sculpted Pressac in profile, concentrated and juicy with plenty of white pepper and peony floral edging. Tasty and enticiting, pared back but with a punch underneath that steals up on you. This is good, with ripe blueberry and raspberry fruits set against a sharper redcurrant and cranberry finish. A yield of 34hl/ha. 1% Malbec and 2% Carmenere complete the blend. - Jane Anson, Decanter

The 2020 Château De Pressac is another smoking good Saint-Emilion. Lots of purple fruits, violets, and floral notes define the nose, and it’s pure, with well-integrated acidity, medium to full-bodied richness, and considerable elegance. It shows the style of the vintage nicely and is beautifully balanced. - Jeb Dunnuck

The 2020 Château de Pressac is well defined, almost unassuming on the nose, gently opening to reveal blackberry and briar scents, the oak very well integrated. The medium-bodied palate makes a very pure entry, offering black currant and blueberry notes and a dash of white pepper. Velvety-smooth toward a finish of satisfying length. This should give 12–15 years of drinking pleasure.- Neal Martin, Vinous Media
