Potensac is a classic Bordeaux property located up north on the Medoc, north of St. Estephe. There is an unusual amount of limestone in the soils for the Left Bank, so it is appropriate that there is a greater percentage of Merlot here than Cabernet. The 2010 is rich and wonderful. A one hour decant is required.

Wine Spectator

90 points

"Solid, if a bit chunky, with cocoa and ganache coating a core of black currant and blackberry fruit that hangs through the muscular finish, where a warm paving stone note rings out. A touch austere, but the stuffing is there for cellaring."

Wine Enthusiast

91 points

"Firm and prominent yet dusty tannins show one side of the richness of the vintage. The other is the ripe, black fruits, with acidity in fine balance. This estate, under the same ownership as Léoville las Cases, is serious Médoc, needing to age."

Tasting Profile


Château Potensac is one of Bordeaux's great under-the-radar gems. Like any true claret, it can be classically restrained and firm in youth, but wonderfully perfumed and cooly delicious with bottle age.

The wine is made by the Delon family, who also make legendary Saint-Julien 2nd growth, Léoville Las Cases. Potensac comes from vines further north, on gravel-over-limestone hills in the Médoc appellation just beyond Saint-Estèphe.
