Viña Seña 2017 is a mature, medium-to-full-bodied Bordeaux-style blend from the Aconcagua region of Chile. Viña Seña was established as a collaborative project between Edouardo Chadwick of Viña Errázuriz and Robert Mondavi. Its goal was to produce a Bordeaux-style blend with a distinctively Chilean character (provided by the inclusion of Carmenere in the blend). The 2017 vintage is a blend of 52% Cabernet, 15% Malbec, 15% Carmenere, 10% Cabernet Franc and 8% Petit Verdot. " "The wine is fresh, with tension and no sweetness, serious and with personality", he writes. James Suckling was seriously impressed. "Full-bodied, rich and powerful Seña with impressive and powerful tannins, yet harmony and balance." A 99-point triumph from one of the most respected teams in Chile, the 2017 Seña is a wine that will delight early drinkers in the next three to five years with its fresh and energetic fruit profile, violet perfume, velvety tannins and graceful acidity. Those who wait longer will be rewarded with an extra level of sophistication and elegance in an exceptional wine with a structure and freshness to go the distance." Luis Gutiérrez, 2019

The 2017 Seña was made in a warm, dry, early-ripening year. A blend of 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Malbec, 15% Carménère, 10% Cabernet Franc and 8% Petit Verdot, it was aged for 22 months in 70% new French barrels and a fifth in foudres. A purplish garnet in the glass. The simple, vivid nose offers notes of ripe blackcurrant and blackberry and their respective jams. In the mouth, it’s compact with firm tannins and accomplished juice thanks to the well-preserved acidity.Joaquin Hidalgo3rd August 2022
