La Chapelle de Potensac 2019

Grape Varietals:  59% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon and 16% Cabernet Franc

Wine Region: Bordeaux, France

Tasting Notes: Deep ruby colour. Cool and refined on the nose, with fresh blackcurrant, dark cherry and subtle, savoury spice from wood. The palate follows in this vein, straight and savoury with a chalky line of tannins providing the structure. This has the classic bones of Médocain Cabernet but it pairs this with the charm and exuberance of 2019 fruit. Waves of plums and cherries continue to build and are layered by a light smokiness. These work together in harmony to a compact and precise, but long finish. 

Food Pairing: Lamb roast
