Dark Garnet with mid-tearing. Leathery aroma with earthy tones. Chocolate with mild strawberry and mild tannins. This wine should be had in 2013. No later!

This is an ok mature Potensac, but I've never found this wine very interesting. Some bricking, no faults, just lacks complexity, length and character. Not a complete lack of mid-palate, but pretty simple. Maybe the wines biggest fault is no obvious fault or strength.

Four square. Should just leave at that really... Double decanted a few bottles for 90mins and cooled down. Seemed about right, got rid of the initial earthy smell. A correct but boring wine, little aroma, tastes of leather, cedar and lead. Drink over next 2yrs.

Drank in London
Classic claret. Nose of cedar, earth, forest floor, leather and dark berries. Lovely rich complex palate. Short length.
