Vintage Cellar Review: 90 Points, Robert Parker “The 2008 Senda 66 spent 8 months in new French oak. Purple/black in color, it sports a fragrant nose of spice box, lavender, blueberry, and blackberry. Smooth-textured, layered, and remarkably rich on the palate for its humble price, this lengthy effort will drink nicely over the next 5-6 years.”
My Review: This was a very deep red wine. It smelled of cherries and dark fruit, with a possible hint of strawberry candy. The wine tasted similar to its nose, and was very smooth. There was a strong tannic feel to the wine upon swallowing. This wine was ago, a little too tannic for my taste.
