Chateau Senejac


Now biodynamic, Chateau Senejac has gone from being a lightish luncheon claret to a lower yielding, deeper and fuller wine that much better demonstrates its inland terroir and the high proportion of the Cabernet grapes here. The improvements wrought by Alfred Tesseron and the team from cult Chateau Pontet-Canet have really changed the vineyard and therefore the wines for the better and for pure drinking pleasure this is a buy. (CW 07/05/10) Ever since the Cordier family, of Chateau Talbot, bought this 39-hectare estate in 1999, its reputation has been quietly escalating, and it received another jump in 2008, when the Pontet-Canet wine-making team came onboard. With Jean-Michel Comme in charge of the vineyards, it is no surprise that this estate – as at Pontet Canet – is now certified biodynamic. The vineyards themselves are located close to Margaux, and are in the process of receiving organic certification also. Lorraine Cordier passed away in April 2011, but there seems no doubt that her family will not let her hard-earned work go to waste, and this remains one of the most exciting properties on the Left Bank.
