2018 Seña Bordeaux Blend Valle de Aconcagua
100
James Suckling
Review Date: 04/2020This is a very thoughtful Seña that shows unique aromas of warm earth, mushrooms and conifer, turning to dark berries and black olives. The palate is more glamorous with ultra-fine tannins that envelop your palate. Shows power and vibrancy at the end. Toned muscles. It’s a very intellectual wine that harkens back to the 2015.

Notes
100 points Ian d'Agata for Terroir Sense: "Deep ruby, no rim. Pure and very elegant nose, still slightly closed and refined, with captivating nuances of strawberry, blueberry, vanilla, coffee, cocoa, minerals and sweet spices, all lifted by a refreshing perfumed violet top-note. Magically harmonious, smooth, long and beautiful with well-integrated acidity and very well delineated in its enticing flavours that echo the aromas. Showcases wonderful clarity and cut, not to mention real staying power and a downright silky texture. A wine that was great from the first day as all of the world’s truly great wines are. A good growing season weather-wise allowed a slow gentle ripening and to harvest late, so grapes were not just healthy but complex in their must characteristics." (10/2021) Widely regarded as Chile's first "cult" wine, Seña was established in 1995 as the result of a groundbreaking collaboration between Eduardo Chadwick of Viña Errázuriz and renowned American winemaker Robert Mondavi. Their goal was to create a Chilean red wine that could stand alongside the world's finest. This partnership marked Chile's first international joint venture in winemaking, uniting two legendary families. Seña's inaugural 1995 vintage was met with critical acclaim, instantly establishing its reputation. The estate has been fully owned and managed by the Chadwick family since 2005 and has continued to collect accolades, including several perfect 100-point scores.
