Tasting notes
Senejac has been producing high quality wines over recent vintages, and their 2011 is a noteworthy success in this difficult year. It offers a dense ruby/plum color along with abundant notes of black currants, black cherries, earth and licorice. Medium-bodied, rich and well-endowed, this noteworthy sleeper of the vintage represents excellent value. Drink it over the next 5-7 years.

Deep greyish crimson. Dusty cassis, a little cedary. Terribly bitter. (JH)
Some pleasant blackberry and wet earth character. Medium body, with chewy tannins and a medium finish. Pleasant structure. Needs a little more on the finish. jamessuckling.com
The Sénéjac has an attractive nose of bright red fruit with well integrated oak that remains in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with rather sharp tannins. Crisp acidity and it comes across as a little pinched towards the finish. Tasted April 2012.Neal Martin, eRobertParker.com
