Critic tasting note: "A steal of a deal here, this medium-bodied wine is loaded with sweet, ripe, dark cherries, red currants, cigar wrapper, flowers, herbs, and freshness on the nose and palate. Drink from 2022-2036." - 91/100, Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider

Château Sénéjac 2016 has a deep red colour with garnet reflections. The first nose is very open, precise with notes of black cherries and blackberries. After agitation, the nose takes all its fullness, with complex notes of red fruits, associated with the vanilla toast of the barrel. The palate is dense and opulent. The texture is very precise, thanks to very good quality tannins and a good management of our extractions during the vinification. Sénéjac 2016 is powerful while remaining very elegant and expresses itself by a beautiful length in the mouth, silky and well-melted tannins.
