This is my favourite of the selection. An easy and round bordeaux by the winemakers of Leoville Las-Cases (2nd growth in St Julien). Outstanding value for money. Drink now or hold another 5 years.

Tasting notes
92/100, Stephen Brook, Decanter (2018)
One might have expected Potensac to have produced an intimidating wine in this fine vintage, but it’s actually quite accessible and fluid. The nose is sweet and ripe, with elegant cherry and blackcurrant aromas. The tannins are firm but ripe, giving grip, but there’s complexity and spice too. Assertive and long.
