Sena

The 2010 Seña is the result of a cool, dry year that helped to temper the ripe style so popular at the time. A blend of 59% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Carménère, 12% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc and 4% Petit Verdot, it spent 22 months in 77% new barrels. Garnet red in hue. The nose presents notes of blackcurrant with a layer of cedar and clear herbal aromas along with hints of mint and pepper. In the mouth it has firm tannins that engineer a balance between elegance and intensity. A wine with a voluptuous, woody character that nonetheless manages to deliver clarity and focus.
