Critic's 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 Thoughts The lush, deep, dark purple-black color of this wine was gorgeous. Flecks of deep blue hues glistened around the edges. Aromas of spice and dark berry fruits (black and blue berries) on the nose mixed with a floral quality. On the palate, this wine was smooth. Complex. It unfolded first with blueberry coated with cracked pepper, then a hot, red fruit quality with spices on the finish. I very much enjoyed the layers and complexity of this wine.
This wine was not paired with any food.
