James Suckling – Novembre 2022 – 94pts
“This has a dark and spiced character with plums and blackberries on offer as well as chocolate and walnut undertones. Medium- to full-bodied with firm tannins and a toned, vivid character. Deep and black fruited palate with a textured, lingering finish. Drink from 2025.”
Jane Anson – Avril 2023 – 95pts
“Bright violet-tinged plum colour, vivid berry fruit on the opening, with velvety texture that you really see and feel in the glass. Impressive, this has great quality and personality, with crunchy red fruit fruit that has juice without sacrifcing depth and complexity. Stands out in the appellation. Tasted twice, excellent both times. Hubert de Boüard […]
Markus Del Monego – Mars 2023 – 94pts
Darkpurple colour with violet hue and black core. Rich nose with expressive aroma reminiscent of dark chocolate, mocha and fine toasting, balmy spices backed by ripe lackberries, blackberry jam, plum compote and discreet floral hints. On the palate well structured and balanced with freshness, ripe tannins, elegant mid-palate and excellent length.
The Wine Cellar Insider – Avril 2023 – 93-95 pts
Silky, elegant, pure, fresh, and medium-bodied, the sweet, dark, red, and black fruits are vibrant, polished, refined, long, and pure in the nose, and on the palate. Drink from 2025-2040.
Terre de Vins – Mai 2023 – 93-94 pts
Le premier nez est fermé puis s’ouvre sur la menthe et l’eucalyptus. Ce gage de fraicheur se confirmeen bouche pour un bel équilibre acidité-sucrosité et ce caractère juteux. L’ensemble est une promesse de garde avec une finale sur le bonbon acidulé. Le Château de Pressac signe un très beau 2022.
The Wine Doctor – Mai 2023 – 93-95 pts
From the Quenin clan, on the eastern plateau, this kicks off with a dense, compact, savoury and lightly toasted nose, melding very concentrated yet perfumed plum and cherry fruits with rose petals and violets. The palate is very convincing, harmonious, with a minerally grain to it as – I suspect – a reflection of the […]
Vinous (Antonio Galloni) – Mai 2023 – 92-95 pts
The 2022 de Pressac is dense, rich and explosive. Ripe dark cherry, plum, spice, menthol, licorice and chocolate give the 2022 notable depth and complexity. The tannins are very well balanced for a young Pressac, while floral top notes lift the finish. Tasted two times.
Decanter – MAI 2022 – 95 pts
95 : Bright and vibrant, a lovely cleanness , so pure, so fine and well worked, generous, appealing but the weight and the texture and the tannic integration is flawless. Round, easy, lovely black and red fruits, great chalky coolness with some minerality and liquorice, graphite tang on the finish. A wine you could drink […]
Adrian Van Velsen – Avril 2024 – 93-95 pts
Tiefgründig, reiffruchtig, Brombeeren, schwarze Johannisbeeren, florale Noten. Am Gaumen ausgewogen, viel Gerbstoff, fein mit der Frucht verwoben, noch wild, von Ausbau geprägt, jedoch mit sehr guten Anlagen. Reiht sich nahtlos in die Reihe der qualitativ hochwertigen Jahrgänge von de Pressac ein.
