Chateau Potensac, Medoc, Bordeaux, France, 2023, Case of 6 ^Sale

The estate has been in the same family since time immemorial and has always been handed down by women. The current owner, Jean-Hubert Delon, inherited the estate from his paternal grandmother, Georgette Liquard. Although close to the river, Potensac is situated on a high point of land in North Medoc. Because of this position, the site has been populated since ancient times. The name "Medoc" in fact comes from "medio aquae" which means "in the middle of the waters"… 

"The 2023 Potensac offers up notes of minty cassis, sweet red berries and pencil shavings, followed by a medium- to full-bodied, taut and layered palate framed by chalky tannins. This classic Médoc will require a bit of patience."
