93 Points (2023) - John Szabo, MS
Fine, delicate and fragrant in the Volnay style, Potel's '23 Les Grand Poisots is a sleek and fluid wine yet with firm underlying girding, fine-grained but high-tensile tannins, a sort of carbon fiber-like structure, light but very strong. I love the morello cherry fruit and the saliva-inducing acids, and especially the wet limestone and bloody-iron-tinged flavours. Length is very good to excellent. This should reach drinking peak relatively early I'd say given the current appeal, or hold into the mid-late 30s

Intense, vibrant sauvignon with lemongrass, red capsicum and passionfruit flavours supported by a mouthwatering cut of tangy acidity. High energy wine with a perfect sweet-sour balance giving the wine pleasing tension.
Drink date: 2023-2027.

From Dillon’s Point, in the lower Wairau Valley near the confluence of the Wairau and Opawa rivers. Vineyards began to be planted in the early 1990s and today the sub-region is recognized for pretty classy sauvignon blanc. As this Ahi Kā surely is, green grassy and green tree fruit juicy, come from a producer that means “keeping the home fires burning.” This example of sauvignon blanc does indeed keep things stable and provides the necessity of good drinking sauvignon blanc. Drink 2026-2028. Tasted July 2026.

There is a wee whiff of sulphur at first but aeration should solve that. Leaving an intriguing tapestry of ripe guava/passion fruit, lime, spearmint and grassy notes - all very much signature Marlborough. It is medium weight, a bit heftier and thankfully less shrill than some, with some warmth (13%) and sweetness. But all distributed and balanced. This is generous with excellent length.

Les Quartiers De Nuits is yet another minuscule plot of a vineyard identified and chosen by Nicolas Potel, not quite one-third of a hectare, planted 96 years before this 2023 harvest. An early one for the most part, before the cold winds move in and ahead of Grand Cru neighbours like that of Echezeaux and Clos de Vougeot. There is a bit of mean intensity and streak in this singular, lieu-dit cru of a Bourgogne. The tannins are fierce, they lash upon the palate with severity and therefore the necessity to give time will become the requiem to success. Les Quartiers De Nuits is no shrinking violet and in fact the mix of botanical verdancy and bitters make up a formula which could never be solved in the first few years. The stuffing can’t be denied and the objective is perspicuous. Stay clear for a while. Drink 2028-2035.

This is an impressive Bordeaux for $25. There is good lift on the nose with heightened peony florality, raspberry, fresh cedar and basil. It is medium-full bodied, fairly plush and dense yet nicely strcutured, with quite gritty somewhat green and bitter tannin. Give it three years; should last beyond 2030 The length is excellent.

This is a fine wine, rich and dense from a 43-acre vineyard in the west of the appellation. The alcohol is fully integrated with the ripe tannins from 12 months in wood, now softening and releasing the black-currant flavors. Drink from 2026.

This has a grassy, lightly candied character with aromas of lemon drops, tarragon and citrus leaves. Light- to medium-bodied with zippy acidity, offering white-currant and citrus-blossom flavours throughout. Sustainable. Drink now.

So interesting that this has the same gravelly, hay, tea and spice aromatics as the Beaune 1er Cru pinot noir tasted same day. Terroir transmitting through different colours. Expect ripe peach, vanilla custard as well. It is full bodied, open knit and very intense - quite powerful yet showing some elegance. The length is outstanding. Should age a decade or more.
