Château Potensac

The Château Potensac is an iconic wine estate located in the Médoc region of Bordeaux.

This magnificent estate has a rich history, a deep family tradition and an exceptional Domaine that make it a major player in the Médoc appellation and the French wine industry as a whole.

The history of Château dates back to the 18th century, when the Delon family acquired the property in 1750. Since then, the Delon family has played a key role in the preservation and development of this Domaine winery. Specifically, family member Jean-Hubert Delon has managed the estate and been the driving force behind its rise to world renown. His commitment to quality and winemaking tradition is deeply rooted in the history of the Delon family and Château.

The Domaine covers around 84 hectares of vines, mainly planted with Bordeaux's traditional grape varieties, namely Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. These vineyards benefit from an exceptional terroir, characterized by clay-limestone soils, which contribute to the complexity and finesse of the wines produced.

The specialty of Château Potensac lies in the production of Médoc red wines of great elegance and longevity. Potensac Domaine is particularly renowned for its resolutely traditional approach to... See more ...

Description Château Potensac 2024.

The Château Potensac 2024 reflects the rigor of its limestone and gravel terroir, located on the heights of the northern Médoc.

In a demanding vintage, marked by sanitary pressure in spring, the Domaine was able to pRéserver maintain berry integrity thanks to reactive vine management and a summer Sec, conducive to slow, even ripening.

The Cabernet-dominated blend (45% Sauvignon, 22% Franc) gives the wine a straight, mineral structure. The nose opens with floral notes (iris, hawthorn), mingled with lively red fruit, a touch of graphite and assertive salinity.

The palate is slender, structured by firm but integrated tannins, with a taut, almost chalky finish.

Without seeking demonstration, Potensac 2024 expresses a measured elegance, carried by the depth of old vines and the precision of discreet ageing. A racy, terroir-driven wine with obvious ageing potential.

Harvest date: September 28 to October 7, 2024

The care we take when receiving wines in our cellars enables us to detect bottles with imperfections (dirty or faded labels, damaged capsules, etc.). In such cases, they are systematically set aside and never put online! Our preparation team selects only bottles with perfect presentation for your orders!

It is these bottles with slight external defects that we present to you in the "Existe en imparfaite" selection. These bottles are, of course, of "irreproachable" gustatory quality, but suffer from slight defects on the label or cap. We therefore offer them at a preferential price, making the pleasure of tasting them even more affordable.
