Bordeaux Haut-Medoc Cru Bourgeois van klasse uit topjaar 2016. Van 40 hectare kiezelgronden met gemiddeld 35 jarige stokken, gelegen net onder Margaux in de Haut-Medoc. Geheel biologisch gemaakt onder toezicht van Jean - Michel Comme (Pontet Canet). Nu al behoorlijk toegankelijk (na decanteren), maar zal zich nog verder ontwikkelen. Drinken: eind 2019 - 2025+.

Om enkele jubelende internationale wijncritici te citeren:

16.5+ Jancis Robinson: Relaxed, well-integrated, ripe nose. Sweet, purple fruits and quite a bit of both acid and tannin but just the right side of rasping. A success on a bourgeois scale. Lovely fresh confidence. GV?

92 James Suckling: Very charming and precocious with ripe-redcurrant character and a lovely combination of delicate sweetness and supple tannins on the palate, the finish long and silky. Drink or hold.

91 Decanter: From the Bignon-Cordier family, this is a sleek, sexy Médoc with good chewy tannins and a lovely rich texture to the blackberry fruit. It has a serious edge, showing some menthol notes on the finish and a feeling of freshness that accompanies the entire experience beginning to end. Good persistency. A successful vintage here.

90-93 Neal Martin (Wine Advocate) : The 2016 Sénéjac has an attractive bouquet with floral-tinged red and black fruit—strawberry pastilles and just a touch of bay leaf, nicely defined and gaining intensity with aeration. The palate is very well balanced with fine tannin, well-judged acidity, very harmonious with assiduous use of new oak. This is a very stylish Haut-Médoc, one of the best that I have tasted in many years. This comes highly recommended.

90 Wine Advocate-Parker :Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Senejac gives notions of crushed red and black cherries, mulberries and cassis with touches of earth, violets, chocolate box and cinnamon stick. Medium-bodied and laden with bags of juicy fruit, it has a soft structure and great length.
