Tasting note: Run by the Cordier family, with the vineyard managed by Alfred Tesseron’s team at Pontet-Canet, this is the first vintage from their biodynamically farmed estate, and it is certainly the best wine I have ever tasted from Senejac. A blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, oodles of black currant fruit are intermixed with some licorice, underbrush, and foresty notes. Great fruit, a sumptuous, fleshy texture, and plenty of succulence and length make for a big, rich, nicely textured wine to drink over the next decade. (89-91*pts. RP, Wine Advocate)

Tasted: April 2010
Score: 89-91*
Drink: 2010-2040

Tasting note: Berry and earthy, spicy character. Toasted oak. Medium-bodied, with fine tannins. A little hollow. (87-90pts. JS, Wine Spectator)
