2016 年份的 Potensac 是該酒莊至今為止最好的年份嗎？絕對是，其引人注目的黑醋栗和鉛筆屑的香氣；其天衣無縫、完美平衡的口感，都是強而有力的理由。酒體中等至飽滿，富有深度和集中力，單寧細緻，酸度活潑，餘韻悠長。可隨著陳年變得更出色，但年輕的 Potensac 也相當容易飲用。

帶有雪松和新鮮紅花的溫和香氣，夾雜着一絲成熟的紅色漿果、黑醋栗、桑葚、煤煙和涼爽的礦石感。口感豐富，充滿濃郁的紅色水果風味，並融合柔滑的單寧，精準而持久。一流的表現，從 2023 年開始適飲。

Tasting Notes:
(Robert Parker's rating: 91+ points)
Is the 2016 Potensac this estate's finest vintage to date? Certainly, its compelling bouquet of cassis and pencil shavings and it's seamless, beautifully balanced palate make a strong case. Medium to full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with beautifully refined tannins, lively acids and a long, penetrating finish, this is built to age with style, yet it is also quite accessible at this early stage for a young Potensac.

Suave aromas of cedar and fresh red flowers with a thread of ripe red berries and blackcurrants, mulberries, coal smoke and cool stones. The palate delivers a wealth of rich red-fruit flavors, framed in sleek tannins that build with precision and length. A class act. One of the best from here in the modern era. Try from 2023.
