2019 Chateau Senejac Haut-Medoc
Winemaker Notes: The wines of Sénéjac are characterized by a deep color almost black in their young years. The very expressive nose exhales scents of black fruits and spices. In mouth, Sénéjac presents a lot of fullness and intensity while remaining suave and civilized thanks to the smoothness of its tannins. The wine of Sénéjac is a charming and distinguished wine to drink young for its fullness and its fruit or better still to let age slowly to find the race of its soil.
CRITICAL ACCLAIM
James Suckling - "A firm, chewy red with blackberry and light coffee character. Medium to full body. Solid structure. Barrel Sample: 92-93"
Decanter - "Extremely juicy cassis and enticing hedgerow here, this is bright, perky, less flesh on the bones than 2018 but with plenty of character. It settles in the glass, and you feel the build up of tannins. Will be interesting to taste in bottle, there is real potential here. Barrel Sample: 91"
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - "Vinified by Château Talbot's Jean-Michel Laporte, the 2019 Sénéjac delivers aromas of smoky blackberries, pencil shavings and loamy soil, followed by a medium to full-bodied, lively and charming palate framed by fine tannins and concluding with a saline, mouthwatering finish. It's a fine effort that comes recommended. Best After 2021"
