Chateau Gruaud-Larose, Saint-Julien, France 2000 Chateau Senejac Fresh nose of dried fruitLovely nose on this fine quality of animal, gamy perfume over rich, earthy red fruits. The palate is tight and has a beautifully delineated fruit quality with excellent ripeness and balance. There is good support from crisp tannins and a mineral acidity. Quality is stamped all over this wine. Excellent outstanding. 96 Pts Tom Cannavan
