Frank Potts Grand Cuvée - 2004 - Finca Sophenia
Ref: A113504
Frank Potts - Bleasdale's flagship red commemorates its founder. A rich Cabernet blend and, depending on the vintage, complemented with dribbles of Malbec, Cabernet Franc, or Petit Verdot. This luscious wine is full of the region's characteristics - full berry flavour, deep colour, rich fruitiness - and has mellow tastes of oak.

This is the twelfth release of Frank Potts blend and is, once again, a mix of Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec and Petit Verdot. From the fabulous 2004 vintage the wine explodes with flavours of blackberries, cassis and mint from the Cabernet, raspberries and plums from the Malbec and dark cherries and violets from the Petit Verdot. Elegant, rich and velvety smooth enjoy it with a juicy steak now or cellar until 2010 to get the best from this wine.

The company today is owned and operated by fifth generation members of the Potts family, with Michael Potts as the current winemaker.

The winery, founded in 1850, has been classified by the National Trust and is listed on the State and National Heritage Registers. The cellars, constructed from red gum and limestone, house the old red gum vats and some of the equipment used by previous generations. The splendid red gum lever press, hand-sawn in the 1890's, is well worth a look.

Today's winery has the latest technology but still maintains the family traditions - the Pott's philosophy of producing honest, consistent, reliable wines, which are receiving accolades throughout the world.
