22 months 90% French oak, barrels (80% new), 10% foudres.
Seña 2019, 25. Jubiläumsjahrgang, zeigt volles Potenzial von Ausgewogenheit, Tiefe und Eleganz.
98 Points James Suckling - Such beautiful aromas of crushed berries, currants, walnuts, allspice and nutmeg follow through to a full body with tight, ultra fine tannins that provide length and intensity. A finish of slightly dried cherries with wet earth, slate and stone. Chewy and fine-grained. A wine with soul and length. Give it time. Drink after 2025.
98 Points Robert Parker`s Wine Advocate - The 2019 Seña was produced with a Bordeaux blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Malbec, 15% Carmenere and 4% Petit Verdot with the Chilean character of the high percentage of Carmenere. Most of the volume fermented in stainless steel with some 10% in concrete vats, and the final blend matured for 22 months in French oak barrels, 80% of them new, and 10% in Stockinger vats. It's 13.5% alcohol and has good acidity and freshness, coming through as medium-bodied, elegant and balanced. This is incredibly elegant, subtle and harmonious even at this early stage. It has floral aromas, notes of orange peel, a touch of creamy sweet spices and great freshness. The palate is medium-bodied, seamless and pure, with pungent flavors and a soft texture. It's long, clean, defined and super tasty. I feel this wine is getting better and better by the vintage. The grapes were picked quite early, and that helped to contain the ripeness and seems to have been a great decision. There was also an exception in the Panquehue zone where the Seña vines are, where the summer was cooler than the average, so quite different to many other regions in Chile.
1995 gründeten Robert Mondavi und Eduardo Chadwick eines der ersten internationalen Joint Ventures Chiles, ein mutiger und zukunftsweisender Schritt für diese Zeit. Sie haben sich ein sehr anspruchsvolles Ziel gesetzt: das volle Potenzial des chilenischen Weinlandes auszuschöpfen und einen wirklich Weltklassewein zu kreieren. Diese beiden angesehenen traditionellen Weinfamilien teilen die Leidenschaft für Exzellenz und Innovation. Ihren Traum und ihre Hingabe teilend, veröffentlichten sie 1997 den ersten Jahrgang von Sena (1995), einem der ersten Kultweine Chiles, der einen Meilenstein markiert und den Weg zur Herstellung von Ultra-Premium-Weinen in Chile einleitete. Eduardo Chadwick suchte vier Jahre lang an der Seite von Robert Mondavi, bevor er im chilenischen Valle de Aconcagua das ideale Terroir fand. Sena, die chilenische Bordeax-Mischung, ist der Höhepunkt ihrer Vision.
