Luis Gutierrez for Robert Parker

The 2018 Seña is a very elegant vintage. 2018 was a year with a slow ripening, so that the grapes reached a very good maturity and full development of aromas and flavors, which makes the wine nuanced and complex, with depth but also freshness and finesse - floral and expressive. The tannins are very fine, polished and elegant, and the wine is long and complex. This is Seña's best vintage to date.

winery

The Chilean winery Viña Seña was founded in 1955 from the joint venture of winemaking legend Robert Mondavi and Eduardo Chadwick, one of the most respected Chilean winemakers.

Both recognized the potential of the wine region in the Aconcagua Valley and began to plant and sustainably cultivate a vineyard in a cool location at the foot of the almost 7,000 meter high Aconcagua mountain. The location offers optimal conditions for growing quality wines, including a variety of soils, an ideal climate and high levels of sunshine.

Here they produce the fresh, elegant cult wine Seña, which has been one of the best wines in the world since the sensational Berlin Tasting in 2004.
World. Thirty-six of the most respected
European wine experts to blind taste 16 wines and awarded Seña second place, ahead of Château Lafite-Rothschild.

Since 2005, the winery has been 100% owned by the Chadwick family.
