// 75% Merlot, 23% Cabernet Franc and 2% Malbec
"Château de Pitray has 60 hectares of vines (130 hectares in all, including forests and meadows) on the clay-limestone plateau of Gardegan, contiguous to the east with Saint Emilion’s. Pitray has been in the same family for more than six hundred years, so the challenge is daunting: to produce wines that resemble the terroir, gourmet, fruity, with round, velvety and charming tannins" - Chateau de Pitray, Winemaker
"Attractive spices to the ripe dark berries, iron and a hint of roasted red peppers. Rich and flavorful, this has tight, fine-grained tannins and a juicy, medium-long finish that’s structured and vertically packed. Drink from 2026." - 92 Points, Sekun Shuai, JamesSuckling.com
"The 2022 Les Prairies offers baked red cherries, redcurrant and bergamot scents on the appealing nose. The palate is quite savory on the entry, with a dose of black pepper lacing the red berry fruit with a granular, peppery finish." - Neal Martin, Vinous
