Product Notes

Château Sénéjac Comte de Sénéjac wine is a full-bodied, elegant Bordeaux hailing from the Haut-Médoc region of France. Exhibiting a deep garnet hue, this wine is a blend of classic Bordeaux varietals, primarily cabernet sauvignon and merlot, characterised by robust tannins and a lively structure. It offers an enchanting bouquet of dark berries, subtle spice and slight nuances of tobacco, layered with hints of oak. Packed with lush fruit flavours, it delivers a supremely balanced palate, culminating in a gratifyingly persistent finish. Ideal for a resplendent roast dinner or rich cheese board, this is a truly distinctive, sophisticated choice.

Tasting Notes

Intense aromas of plums and strawberry are complemented by hints of liquorice. Beautifully balanced with silky tannins and roasted notes on the finish.
