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. 100,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in February 2021.

The 2019 Seña 25 Años is a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Malbec, 15% Carménère and 4% Petit Verdot from Aconcagua Costa. The wine was aged for 22 months, 10% in foudres and the rest in French barrels. A vivid purple in hue, the complex, subtle nose opens up gradually, delivering layer after layer of blackcurrants. Touches of sweet and sour cherry, a twist of raspberry, sweet spices and notes from the aging process, such as nutmeg and cedar, fill the palate. Relaxed in the mouth, the 2019 Seña begins with a juicy, well-integrated freshness that feels light as silk, accompanied by extremely finely grained yet young tannins that sculpt the flow, promising excellent aging potential. The finish lingers long, repeating aromas of blackcurrant and sour cherry.

Chadwick Eduardo
L’une des figures emblématiques de l’univers vineux du Chili, Eduardo Chadwick s’est associé au célèbre producteur californien Robert Mondavi pour créer le premier vin icône chilien : Seña. Son premier millésime en 1995, mis sur le marché en 1997, couronnait une démarche commune visant à produire le plus grand vin rouge du pays. Cette initiative novatrice a fait bien des émules depuis. D’une superficie de 350 hectares, dont 42 plantés en vignes, la propriété s’étend sur les contours vallonnés de l’Aconcagua où sont employées des pratiques biologiques et biodynamiques. L’assemblage diffère d’un millésime à l’autre, mais le plus souvent il se compose de 50% de cabernet-sauvignon, complété de teneurs variables de carménère, malbec, merlot, cabernet franc et petit verdot. Les raisins sont fermentés en cuves inox thermo-régulées, le vin étant ensuite élevé pendant 22 mois en barriques de chêne français neuf. Apprécié des oenophiles et des critiques, Seña s’impose indéniablement comme l’étoile montante du Chili.
