Seña: The Chilean Icon Rivaling Bordeaux's Finest

Conceived by Eduardo Chadwick and Robert Mondavi with the sole aim of creating Chile’s first world-class icon wine, Seña stands as a benchmark for New World excellence. This biodynamically grown, Aconcagua Valley blend-predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon with a crucial inclusion of Carmenère-possesses the structure and finesse to mature gracefully for decades, a true testament to its unique hillside terroir.

Sommelier's Tasting Profile

• Appearance: Deep ruby-garnet, showing excellent concentration.
• Nose: Highly expressive, offering a pure core of red and black berries (cassis, raspberry), evolving into tertiary notes of dried herbs, tobacco leaf, cigar box, and subtle Asian spice.
• Palate: Medium to full-bodied, perfectly poised. The tannins are exceptionally refined and silky, providing structure without aggression. A thread of fresh acidity runs through the mid-palate, leading to a complex, multi-layered mouthfeel.
• Finish: Long, elegant, and dry, with great purity of fruit and a subtle, mineral-driven lift.

Serving Suggestion

A wine of this pedigree requires proper aeration. Decant for 1-2 hours. Pair with classic British fare featuring high-quality red meat.

• Pairing Recommendations: Roast Venison Loin, Rack of Lamb, or an aged hard cheese like mature Cheddar.
