Pure and racy yet deep on the nose, with fresh black and blue fruit, citrus, savory herbs, minerals and hints of flowers and cocoa powder. Medium- to full-bodied with masses of fine, fresh tannins and a long, polished finish. Complex and exquisite. Superb balance. 70% merlot, 18% cabernet franc, 7% cabernet sauvignon, 2% carmenere, 2% petit verdot and 1% malbec. Already drinkable, but will develop more complexity as it ages.

Varietal

Red Bordeaux

There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act â€“ the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.

Jeb Dunnuck

Merlot-dominant with Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Carménère, Malbec, and a splash of Petit Verdot, the 2023 Château De Pressac spent 20 months in 95% French oak barrels (55% new) with the balance in amphora. Its deep purple hue is followed by a floral perfume of red and blue fruits intermixed with loads of spring flowers, sappy herbs, and chocolaty oak. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it has a great mid-palate, ripe, polished tannins, and a great finish. It's impressive and well worth seeking out, and I'd be shocked if it didn't drink nicely for two decades. Drink 2026-2046.

The 2023 de Pressac is terrific. Dark, ample and vibrant, the 2023 has so much to offer. Blue/purplish fruit, lavender, spice, gravel, licorice and dried herbs all build in the glass. This is such a classy, polished wine. Pressac remains one of the most distinctive wines in Bordeaux. Give this a few years to be at its best.

Wine Spectator

This offers a warm and caressing feel, as its blackberry and black cherry compote notes glide through slowly, framed by burnished cedar and tobacco. Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenère and Malbec. Best from 2027 through 2035. 10,400 cases made, 1,500 cases imported.
