| Tasting note |
In my report on the 2000 vintage in issue #146 (dated 4-23-03), I forgot to include my review of the 2000 Potensac. It is a beautiful sleeper of the vintage. Rich and concentrated, it may be the finest Potensac since the 1982. By Robert Parker.
After almost 20 years, the colour is only showing slight evolution. The nose is fragrant and charming, with blackcurrant aromas. Hefty in its youth, it has become supple and graceful, with lift and charm, though it still has the Potensac tannic backbone. Ready, but no rush to drink. By Decanter, Mar 2020. |
