« From an estate located on the côtes, on the eastern plateau, this has a very dark, concentrated, mulberry-black hue. A smoky nose, the fruit here dark and pointed, very true to the eastern plateau style, combining ripeness and freshness. The palate confirms this, the fruit coming to the fore here, as is often the case with Pressac in a very rich, dark, coolly defined and sinewy style, all currants and iced black cherries, draped over a rich core of ripe tannins, with plenty of little toasted and tobacco nuances. The more I come back to it the more breadth and focused structure it shows, leading into a finish rich in sappy black fruits, liquorice, currant and a backdrop of ripe tannins. An impressive wine from this still under-rated estate. Well done. »
