Château de Pressac  2016 – Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classé

The nose is aromatic, gourmand, elegant and offers a slight concentration. It reveals notes of grilled oak, toasted/caramelized notes and small notes of fresh/ripe blackberry, coffee associated with discreet hints of cassis, ripe/fresh Gariguette strawberry as well as a hint of licorice. The palate is fruity, mineral, racy and offers a slight unctuosity, deepness, a beautiful finesse as well as a nice freshness. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of fresh/ripe blackberry, fresh/ripe cassis and a hint of fresh/ripe raspberry associated with slight notes of chocolate, toasted oak as well as a very discreet hint of caramelization and sweet spices. Tannins are well-built. Good length and persistence.
