Château Potensac a le niveau d'un excellent Cru Classé. Ce Médoc appartient à la famille Delon, propriétaire de Château Léoville-Las Cases.
Open-knit, with a mix of bramble, sweet tobacco and steeped red and black currant fruit flavors. A lightly roasted apple wood note and a flash of iron check in on the finish, adding spine. Drink now through 2029.
Potensac benefits from its location close to St-Estèphe in this vintage, and the tannins are absolutely beautiful, far more bouncy and fresh than in some vintages. Deep, rich blueberry and raspberry fruits are framed by the same floral prettiness as the second wine. What an excellent vintage for Potensac, owned by the Delon Group. A definite buy this year, give it maybe five years then crack right into it. 56% grand vin, 34% to Chapelle de Potensac and 10% sent to bulk. A blend of 44% Merlot, 39% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot, aged in 30% new oak. 3.49pH.
Purpur mit violettem Rand. lm Bouquet Brombeerstrauch und blaubeerige Konturen mit reifen Heidelbeeren, dahinter duftiges Veilchen. Am saftigen Gaumen mit stützendem, sandigem Tannin und blaubeerigem Finale - mit gutem Potenzial Eine positive Überraschung.
Porté par des tanins solides, ce 2016 corpulent et long demande d'être un peu attendu pour s'arrondir, ce qui permettra au bouquet, déjà complexe, de s'affirmer en fondant le fruit et le bois. Du potentiel et du caractère.
Suave aromas of cedar and fresh red flowers with a thread of ripe red berries and blackcurrants, mulberries, coal smoke and cool stones. The palate delivers a wealth of rich red-fruit flavors, framed in sleek tannins that build with precision and length. A class act. One of the best from here in the modern era. Try from 2023.
Blended of 44% Merlot, 39% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot, the medium to deep garnet-purple colored 2016 Potensac features chocolate box and Sichuan pepper scents with a core of cassis, warm blackberries, kirsch and menthol. Medium to full-bodied, it has a great core of expressive black fruits, grainy tannins and lovely freshness, finishing with a red fruit lift.
Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, dezente Randaufhellung, mit feinen tabakigen Nuancen unterlegte schwarze Beerenfrucht, ein Hauch von Cassis, Mandarinenzesten unterlegt. Stoffig, rund und elegant, angenehme Extraktsüße, integrierte, tragende Tannine, würzig, zarter Nougat im Nachhall, hat Entwicklungspotenzial.
Bouquet intense, juvénile et fruité. Notes de cassis et de groseilles suivies de rafraîchissantes nuances de menthe poivrée. En bouche le vin a du tonus et de la chair. Il mérite un peu de garde et affiche et est doté d’un excellent potentiel de garde.
