Tasting Notes

Bright garnet with violet sparkle, it delivers blueberries and cherries with clove, violet, cassis, and subtle pastry and licorice notes. The palate is juicy and lively, supported by tannins that give persistence and a strong sense of personality.

Food Paring

Pair with beef stew, braised brisket, or lamb shanks to meet the wine’s structure and freshness. Add roasted root vegetables and herb-forward sauces to complement its dark-fruit and savory-spice character.

Professional Reviews

97 Descorchados

"They’ve been making Seña since the 1995 vintage, when the idea of making icon wines in Chile was just getting started. But while the idea has remained and has been successful, Seña’s style has mutated greatly over time. The most radical change came in 2016, which was a cold year with fresh red fruit and higher acidity. The challenge in this much warmer 2017 vintage has been to make room for freshness. And it was possible because rather than resulting in warm, sweet aromas and flavors, the year’s heat produced a firmer structure that supports the mid-palate, lending more solidity in an excellent version of this wine. The blend in this year’s Seña is 52% cabernet sauvignon, 15% malbec, 15% carménère, 10% cabernet franc, and the rest is petit verdot."

Region Information

Valle Central is Chile’s most important wine‑producing region, extending across a broad area with varied subregions. Mediterranean climate conditions, cooling influences from the Andes and Pacific Ocean, and fertile valleys make it ideal for a wide range of grape varieties. Valle Central wines are known for ripe fruit character, balance, and consistent quality.

Chile’s unique geography, bordered by mountains, ocean, and desert, helps protect its vineyards from disease. The country produces reliable, high-quality wines with excellent value. Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenère, and Sauvignon Blanc are key varieties. Chilean winemaking balances consistency, innovation, and strong export markets.
