Senders 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $35
A good but rather rustic Cab. Shows fruity flavors of blackberries, black cherries, anise and smoky oak, with a spicy finish. The drawback is the tannic structure, which is jaggedly harsh. Drink now.  — S.H.  (8/1/2010)

Senders 2007 Pinot Noir (Carneros)

  1. $35
A bit tough and gritty in texture, with some rugged tannins and a green streak that cuts through the cherry fruit. Will benefit from decanting, but doesn’t seem likely to improve with age.  — S.H.  (8/1/2010)

Senders 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon (Stags Leap District)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $35
Feels gritty and rough, with a disagreeable mouthfeel that seems to make the cherry-berry fruit taste sweeter and tarter than it really is. There’s also lots of sweetly smoked oak. Could just be being difficult now, but doesn’t seem likely to improve.  — S.H.  (8/1/2010)

Senders 2007 Julia's Cuvee Red (Napa Valley)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $35
Tough and gnarly in its mouthfeel, with semi-sweet flavors of raspberry and cherry jam. It’s a decent, everyday wine, but overpriced.  — S.H.  (8/1/2010)
