PRIVEE tour and tasting Chateau de Pressac, Saint Emilion Grand Cru Classé
Your host:
Description
Perched on the limestone plateau of Saint-Émilion, the Château de Pressac
overlooks the Dordogne River valley.
Here, the remarkable geology combined with a microclimate promotes the blossoming of the vines.
The know-how of the teams, developed for a long time and constantly evolving,
helps guide and assist the vine as closely as possible to the characteristics
of this deeply original place.
All around the castle, the vineyard of some 41 hectares
brings together the three main types of terroirs of the appellation:
the limestone plateau, the clay-limestone hillside that surrounds the hill and the silty, clay-limestone hill foot,
equal parts on the property.
In an approach that listens to the specifics of nature, this rare diversity of soils
and exhibitions leads to a plural vine and a very finely adapted culture.
The Château de Pressac is the only Grand Cru Classified in Saint-Émilion to bring together six grape varieties today,
all perfectly implanted in the spaces that suit them:
Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Carmenère, Noir de Pressac (Malbec) and Petit Verdot.

Sanitary measures are strictly applied for the protection of all: hydroalcoholic gel to be applied at the entrance and exit of each room, small groups of small size, wearing the mandatory mask, individual and distanced tasting stations.

Perched on the Saint-Émilion plateau, the Château de Pressac has overlooked the valley for more than 6 centuries. Cited in the History of France, Cited by historians, the Château de Pressac, fortified on numerous occasions and having presented up to 27 towers, hosted the surrender of the Battle of Castillon which put an end to the Hundred Years War. We took over this estate in 997 and began major restructuring work on the cellar and the vineyard in order to allow our extraordinary Saint Emilion terroir, classified as a Grand Cru, to deliver the best of itself.
