We’re snowed ❄️ in on a Friday night and decided to imbibe this generously gifted Chateau Potelle, VGS Vintage 2010, ABV 14.5%. It’s predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon, alongside Merlot, from Mount Veeder in Napa Valley, California. 🍷 🇺🇸

Wow, aromas and flavors are exuberant, concentrated, rich, and span a spectrum of characteristics from candied plum, ripe black cherry, and crème de cassis to black olive and crushed violet, to nutmeg, cardamom, and clove, to leather, tobacco, smoke, meat, and earth.

Tannins and mouthfeel are supple and smooth. Acidity is present, lending balance.

This wine is bold and is drinking beautifully now, though it has potential for further aging.

Cheers!

Big, full bodied, intense fruit that leaps out at you, with a cedar dusting and pretty lavender finish... oh, and the wine’s pretty good as well 🤣 🤣🤣 #tgif — 3 years ago

Purple hue with secondary ruby notes. Candied black and red fruit, fig, smoked meat, peat, spices, black pepper, and cedar on the nose. Lively on the palate with spices, fresh dill, and noticeable tannins. Delicious complement with the meal. #domaineeden #domaineedencabernetsauvignon #santacruzmountains #santacruzcabernet #winelover #californiacab #californiacabernet #tgif #cabblend — 5 years ago
