Château Potensac

Château Potensac lies in the northern Médoc on a terroir of gravel, sand and clay-limestone that provides ideal conditions for Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. As a Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel, Potensac has long been one of the most reliable and highest-quality wines in its category. The style is classic and structured, marked by dark berry fruit, tobacco, graphite and fine, fresh acidity. The tannins are firm but precise, giving the wine remarkable longevity. Under the Delon family, known for Léoville Las Cases, Potensac benefits from rigorous parcel work, modern cellar technology and an uncompromising focus on quality. The result is authentic, long-lived Médoc wine with a clear signature and outstanding ageing potential.

Bordeaux

Origin in Focus

Bordeaux

Bordeaux is one of the world’s most renowned wine regions – a name that has stood for elegance, diversity and ageing potential for centuries. Gravel, clay and limestone soils alternate, allowing fine nuances in the wines that reflect both terroir and craftsmanship.

Bordeaux is typically known for blends in which grape varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc work together harmoniously.

Stylistically, red Bordeaux wines are defined by a balance of fruit, structure and freshness. The white wines – usually made from Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon and sometimes Muscadelle – range from crisp and citrus-driven to creamy and complex.
