Château Sénéjac 2020 , Cru Bourgeois du Haut-Médoc, reveals all the finesse and elegance of the great wines of the left bank of Bordeaux. The 2020 vintage, particularly successful, offers a wine that is both rich and harmonious, where the power of the Cabernet Sauvignon blends perfectly with the roundness of the Merlot. This half-bottle of 37.5 cl allows you to discover a wine of character, accessible today, but which also has excellent aging potential.

Nose :

The nose is fine and elegant, dominated by aromas of ripe black fruits (blackcurrant, blackberry) accompanied by subtle notes of violet and liquorice. Slightly spicy and cedar touches enrich the bouquet, bringing a beautiful complexity and a sensation of freshness.

Mouth :

On the palate, this Haut-Médoc is supple and fruity, with a beautiful body and velvety tannins. The attack is ample, supported by a beautiful acidity that gives dynamism to the wine. The mid-palate is rich, with aromas of black fruits and noble wood, and the finish, long and elegant, is marked by nuances of graphite and cocoa, testifying to careful aging.

Winemaking:

The grapes were harvested by hand, carefully sorted and vinified separately according to the grape varieties. After fermentation, the wine was aged in oak barrels (including a proportion of new barrels) for around 12 months. This aging phase allowed the wine to acquire a beautiful complexity while respecting the fruitiness and freshness characteristic of the Haut-Médoc terroir.

Food and wine pairing:

This wine pairs perfectly with a cuisine with character. Ideal with grilled meats, beef ribs, or even a tournedos Rossini. It also goes very well with mature cheeses such as Comté or Saint-Nectaire. Its elegant structure makes it an excellent companion for festive meals or convivial moments.

Storage potential:

Although it is already enjoyable to drink in its youth, this Château Sénéjac 2020 has interesting aging potential. It will develop over the next 8 to 12 years, gaining complexity and depth over time.
