2019 Red

The 2019 Seña was made in a year in which the average temperatures were similar to 2018 but organized differently: the spring was warm and the summer cool. A blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Malbec, 15% Carménère and 4% Petit Verdot, it was aged for 22 months, 90% in mostly new French barrels and 10% in foudres. Purple in the glass. The nose presents notes of plum with hints of blackberry and expressive layers of mint and herb. In the mouth the firm tannins are refined and a little compact. A delicate wine that will improve in the bottle.

60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Malbec, 15% Carmenère, 4% Petit Verdot. Deep ruby colour. The nose is layered with roasted plum, sun-dried tomatoes and violets. There is a hint of mint, but this complements rather than dominates the fruit. The palate is bright with fresh blackcurrant and dark cherry, with silky ripe tannins adding a glossy texture. Crisp acidity lifts the fruit profile to bright plums and red fruit. Long, spicy and fresh on the finish. (TP)

Such beautiful aromas of crushed berries, currants, walnuts, allspice and nutmeg follow through to a full body with tight, ultra fine tannins that provide length and intensity. A finish of slightly dried cherries with wet earth, slate and stone. Chewy and fine-grained. A wine with soul and length. Give it time. Drink after 2025.
