The Story

Seña is an authentic Chilean blend made from the finest Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenere, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot varieties. The Carmenere variety adds an evident Chilean personality to the wine.

Written Notes

“Our 2001 Seña captures the essential elements of the Seña style: perfect balance, ripe fruit, complexity on the nose and elegance on the palate. A leafy, earthy fragrance provides a rich backdrop for the ripe cherry, blackberry and vanilla bean aromas. Silky smooth tannins give the wine depth and length. Berry fruit and vanilla oak carry through on the soft finish.”

An unusually cool, wet spring affected fruit set in most varieties and reduced yields by approximately 20% to 30% compared to the previous season. Vineyard management was crucial this vintage—using cover crops. Restricting irrigation helped prevent excessive vigour, while crop thinning and intensive leaf pulling helped the vines ripen fully despite the late harvest. The weather turned quite warm in early January, although intermittent cool spells throughout the summer slowed the yield considerably.
