2016 Château Potensac, Cru Bourgeois Médoc

2016 Château Potensac, Cru Bourgeois Médoc

Pure cassis fruit here, this shows all the charm, power and balance of the 2016 vintage. Lovely energy, with notes of violets, graphite and subtle spice, this is already lovely to drink but with the structure for the long term too.

Tasting notes

Bright crimson. Racy and very rich and polished. Lovely tannins. Very juicy. Some tannin and potential underneath. Firm structure but no austerity. GV?

What a racy and focused Potensac with wonderful density and finesse as well as a firm and polished tannins that hold the whole thing together. A beautiful, reasoned young red. One of best Potensacs in a long time.
