It was already 9:30pm. Not dine yet and with no wine, I rushed into Watsons Wine Cellar. Finding 2005 Ch. Potensac is on special now so I quickly picked Buy nolvadex online a bottle and dashed into restaurant.
The reasons for picking this bottle of Potensac is not only because it is on special, but also because Ch. Potensac is one of the best producer in Cru Bourgeois. I have tried a couple of bottles before of different vintage. They all offered very good value for money. In addition, given both Ch. Potensac and Ch. Leoville Las Cases belongs to the same Delon family, this somehow gives me a bit more confident as well.
This bottle of wine has a very attractive nose. It has more red fruit flavour than black fruit and also got flavours of vanilla, licorice, violet and chocolate. My first impression on this wine was already very good.
In palate, my first impression is it has a very smooth palate. Tannins are definitely very fine. The same as its nose, red fruit flavour is more dominated than black fruit. Was it because it has more Merlot and Cabernet Franc than Cabernet Sauvignon? This 2005 Ch. Potensac really got more Merlot (41%) and Cabernet Franc (19%). Cabernet Sauvignon only has 40%. This is quite uncommon for Ch. Potensac before 2005. Before 2005, most Potensac has more than 50% of Cabernet Sauvignon but after 2005, many vintages just have about 40%.
In Buy Cytotec Online Pharmacy No Prescription Needed short, this 2005 Ch. Potensac is really quite nice. It has very ripe fruit flavour and has a very smooth tannins. If I have to criticize, this wine does not have outstanding complexity. Yet, for this price, I do think it offered good value for money.
