Château Potensac is often considered to represent the pure Medoc style. Blend: 40% Merlot, 39% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Cabernet Franc, 3% Petit Verdot. This 2014 Chateau Potensac is the result of a farily rigorous selection (there was more Chapelle than usual). This is typically serious and sturdy with some toasty oak, bright acidity and a well judged balance between fruit and tannin. Potensac tends to age well for its quality level and this will be no exception.
James Suckling describes the 2014 as 'Wonderful aromas of crushed berries, wet earth and rose petals. Medium body and integrated and fine tannins. Very polished and pretty'
Andrew's note: Chateau Potensac is one of those wines that never seems to disappoint. A wine that, despite it's fair price, can age for several years and more than satisfies the need for a great Bordeaux without having to spend a fortune. You'll always find a bottle in my cellar.
