Score 87/100 · Drink 2026-2027, Jeb Dunnuck, Mar 2026

A charming, fully mature Médoc, the 1982 Château Potensac has ripe darker cherry fruits, spice, and cedary notes on the nose. It's medium-bodied and round, with a nicely textured, resolved style that shows its age gracefully. It's not getting any better but is clearly still alive and offers pleasure. Drink 2026-2027.

Score 87/100 · Drink 1995-2001, Robert Parker, Dec 1995

This wine has been fully mature for over 5 years, yet it continues to offer up plenty of good, spicy, ripe black-cherry fruit in its earthy, spicy, pleasing personality. It is plump, tasty, and satisfying. It should be drunk up over the next 5-6 years. Tasted 4 times since bottling with consistent notes.
