ABOUT THE WINE. Chateau Potensac is named for its location on top of the Potensac plateau. Owned by the Delon Family the estate is planted with an unusually high proportion of Merlot for the area, the aim being to produce a softer, more approachable wine. This is the second wine of the estate, made by the same team as Leoville Las Cases.. TASTING NOTES. An attractive, medium-bodied wine for early-drinking. Red cherry and plum fruit, with a hint of mint and dark spice.. FOOD PAIRING. Robust dishes; winter stews and game.. FRIARWOOD SAYS. Excellent value from a very drinkable Bordeaux.
