During the Reaissance de Pressac was a gorgeous manor house with 27 towers. Since 1997 de Pressac has been owed by Madame and Monsieur Quenin, a former concern manager, who established further improvements and worked on de Pressac's distinctiveness. To its characteristics belongs the terroir containing three different soil types: plateau, slope and bottom as well as vinifying of varieties that dissappeared from Bordeaux long time ago: Malbec and Carmenère. The rest of percentage is dominated by 75% Merlot combined with 14% Cabernet Franc and 12% Cabernet Sauvignon.
