Château Sénilhac benefits from a clay-limestone terroir that harbors a significant underground water reserve. This endows the wines—even in dry years—with the vitality, roundness, and suppleness they need. A wine of beautiful intensity, with aromas of ripe fruit and subtle woody notes. A great wine from the Haut-Médoc!
