Chapelle de Potensac

The vines stand on an elevated site in the northern Médoc; the subsoil consists of limestone, topped by clay-gravelly rises with a high proportion of gravel. As a second wine, the cuvée was vinified parcel by parcel and aged for around twelve months in oak barriques; spontaneous fermentation has not been substantiated. The vintage shows red and dark fruit, blackberry, blueberry and raspberry, along with herbal, liquorice and spice notes. On the palate, it is juicy, fresh and medium-bodied, with soft tannins that become noticeable on the finish. Production in 2019 was significantly reduced because unsuitable parcels were being uprooted.
