Chateau Potensac
We are located in the north of the Médoc area. To the west of the Bordeaux region. Here we find Château Potensac, a beautiful and historic property capable of proposing, year after year, wines of great concentration and finesse. Wines capable of maturing well in the cellar, ready to be uncorked on great occasions. Like this AOC Médoc red, produced from grapes harvested in the estate's historic vineyard. Here, the plants have a rather high average age, guaranteeing naturally low yields but great aromatic concentration in the glass. In this case, the Château Potensac blend consists of Merlot (44%), Cabernet Sauvignon (33%), Cabernet Franc (22%) and Petit Verdot (1%). A red wine that captivates from the first taste for its concentration and beautiful minerality. The nose, in particular, surprises with the freshness of the aromas, dominated by ripe black fruits, such as currants, and red flowers. In the mouth, on the other hand, it reveals itself to be a medium-bodied red, with robust but extremely ripe and silky tannins. Linear and balanced, this Bordeaux red is the right wine to uncork to accompany great roasts and game. Good today, it is not afraid to age a few years in the cellar. With time, it will acquire more and more complexity and nuances.
Château Potensac is located in the north of the Médoc, west of the Bordeaux region. A beautiful property that has belonged to the same family for many generations. Today, Jean-Hubert Delon is at the helm and can count on a total of 75 hectares of vineyards, characterised by an exceptional terroir. The vines are in fact located on small elevations with a limestone subsoil covered by gravelly-clay ridges. The most represented grape variety is undoubtedly Merlot, which alone accounts for almost half of the total. Then Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, plus a small parcel of Petit Verdot. The average age of the vines is around 38 years, although some are over 80 years old. Endowed with a strong personality, the wines of Château Potensac, good at the time of release, generally reveal great ageing potential.
