Château de Pressac – The Saint-Émilion Estate That Keeps Raising the Bar

Join us at Château de Pressac in Saint-Émilion, where we sit down with Jean-François Quenin for an intimate, unfiltered look at one of the Right Bank’s most quietly impressive estates.

Jean-François opens up about the history, the personal turning points, and the vision that has shaped Pressac into what it is today—a property with real influence and soul in the region.

Together with Christer, he pours several vintages that span the last two decades.

We taste, discuss, and dig into the house style: the balance of power and finesse, the signature freshness, and exactly how they’ve managed to raise the quality year after year after year over the past 15 years.

Shot with the same thoughtful, cinematic eye as our best films, this is a portrait of evolution, terroir, and relentless pursuit of excellence—told through conversation, glasses raised, and the quiet beauty of the vineyard itself.

Come inside Château de Pressac with us.

Want To Go Deeper?

Inside The Tales Archive, you can explore a growing library of longer, unfiltered, and far more detailed conversations with chateau owners and winemakers captured in vineyards, cellars, and at the tables where decisions are made.

Films about the craft, terroir, château history, and the personal journeys of the people behind the great wines.

No scripts. No polishing. Just real conversations, as they happened.

It’s not for everyone. They get a little wine nerdy.

But if you care about what’s in the glass — and where it truly comes from — and want to go deeper — this is where it gets interesting.
