Description Chapelle de Potensac 2011.
The elegant Second wine of Château Potensac is made from vines planted on either side of the historic Potensac terroir. The terroir, made up of small gravel and clayey sands, gives this wine a lovely freshness. The elegant nose features red fruits such as raspberry and strawberry, as well as peppery notes.

The finish is fruity and juicy, bringing a little more greediness to the whole.
