Thursday, December 16, 2021 - Drinking very well now...approachable for an 05 C-V. Lots of material here. This is a masculine and dense Grand Cru. The great vintage shows. Poured next to a 2013 Raphet C-V which was quite a contrast. The Raphet was much lighter-bodied with snappy red fruit. This Potel was a more brooding/serious wine showing a bit more black fruit. But the Potel did not come across as modern. Just a stacked wine. Showing some development after 15 years - nice forest floor elements add complexity. Should hold - and possibly improve - for many years. Was great with a hearty beef dish.
