Château Potensac
Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend
Nice balance and solid red and black fruit. Not earthy-just fruit. Drinking well but somehow thin and fragmented on the back palate and finish. A bit of bitterness

Aug 4th, 2014Decanted after standing for about 6 hours. On first approach the nose was sweet, amazingly youthful for a 30+ year old wine. Medium body, dark fruit, cassis, vegetal notes, sous bois even. The structure was textbook claret - strong backbone and gripping Cabernet tannins. A sensual wine, but not beguiling like great burgundy. Still, it was a classic and I wish I has another bottle!
