Two magnums. Perfect condition. Medium weight burgundy with wonderful concentration. Red fruit with a sherbety long finish. Great balance. This wine has taken a while to come into balance but just lovely now. Potel’s wines of this era are just great.

on the nose: offers much, cherry, vanilla, slightly boisé. on the palate: tart, sharp minerals, restrained cherry, silky in the mouth. one of us convinced of bubblegum flavour; the other not so sure!

Moderate nose of sweet cherry, vanilla and roasted coffee. Medium body of red cherry, currants, earth and smoke. Medium finish.

Fleshy, with tart cherry, defined. Youthful. On the whole, well done.

Light and a bit rustic on the nose, not bad; a bit dilute, chunky tannins. Could turn out well?
