SChateau Potensac Medoc 2003. Chateau Potensac Medoc 2003. Leoville Lascases producers have purchased this property and their pursuit of quality shows. A wonderful balance of crushed fruits on the nose, full bodied with loads of ripe berry fruit and silky tannins, then long. This might be the best Potensac I have ever had - almost 92-94 - James Suckling. Drink 2008 - 2018.

International Wine CellarFull red-ruby. Aromas of ripe plum, cedar and tar; superripe without being liqueur-like. Silky, fat and full, with atypical volume for this wine. There's enough healthy acidity here to give shape and freshness to the wine. Finishes with broad tannins that reach the sides of the mouth. It's hard to imagine a stronger vintage for this chateau.

DecanterRating: 3/5 - As reviewed by Decanter. Deep ruby, very good clear expression of Cabernet fruit, rather severe and shut in, but very good base of fruit and will age well. 2008-18.
