Tasting Notes

The 2010 Sena is more generous on the nose than the 2009, with crisp, ripe blackberry, boysenberry and graphite notes that are tightly coiled and, at the moment, not as expressive as the 2009. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins. This is silky smooth in the mouth, harmonious and the oak is deftly interwoven into the structure. This is a sophisticated Sena. Drink 2014-2022.

A red with beautiful clarity and precision with currant, blackberry and flower character. Full body, with fine tannins and a sliced lemon character. Clean and very long. Slinky and very polished. Needs more time. Tight and reserved still.

Dark crimson. Right out to the rim. The merest hint of overripeness on the nose. But at least no underripeness and green! Gentle, mellow texture and a little but not too much sweetness. Very nicely spreads across the palate. I'd be pleased to encounter this in Bordeaux. Finishes just a little hot and suddenly but overall very well made. Hint of tobacco leaves and dark chocolate. Good oak handling.
