  The Wine Advocate
  "The 2019 Seña was produced with a Bordeaux blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Malbec, 15% Carmenere and 4% Petit Verdot with the Chilean character of the high percentage of Carmenere. Most of the volume fermented in stainless steel with some 10% in concrete vats, and the final blend matured for 22 months in French oak barrels, 80% of them new, and 10% in Stockinger vats. It's 13.5% alcohol and has good acidity and freshness, coming through as medium-bodied, elegant and balanced. This is incredibly elegant, subtle and harmonious even at this early stage. It has floral aromas, notes of orange peel, a touch of creamy sweet spices and great freshness. The palate is medium-bodied, seamless and pure, with pungent flavors and a soft texture. It's long, clean, defined and super tasty. I feel this wine is getting better and better by the vintage. The grapes were picked quite early, and that helped to contain the ripeness and seems to have been a great decision. There was also an exception in the Panquehue zone where the Seña vines are, where the summer was cooler than the average, so quite different to many other regions in Chile. 100,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in February 2021."

  James Suckling
  "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. From biodynamically grown grapes. Give it time. Drink after 2025."

  Falstaff
  "Dunkles Rubingranat, tiefer Farbkern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Vielschichtiges Bukett, geprägt von floralen und fruchtigen Nuancen, die den kühleren Sommer widerspiegeln, frische Beeren, Zesten, dezent nussige Edelholzanklänge, mineralischer Touch. Komplex, feine Nuancen von Kirschen und Waldbeeren, seidiges Tannin, insgesamt finessenreich und präzise, straff und anhaltend im Abgang, wird von weiterer Flaschenreife nur profitieren, ein gelungener Jubiläumswein."

  Weinwisser
  "Mit dem Seña 2019 feiert das Weingut Viña Seña sein 25-jähriges Jubiläum. Gegründet wurde es von Eduardo Chadwick von Viña Errazuriz und dem legendären Robert Mondavi aus dem Napa Valley. Der biodynamisch erzeugte Seña 2019 besteht aus 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Malbec, 15% Carmenere und 4% Petit Verdot mit 13,5 Vol.-%. Leuchtend viskose Granat-Farbe mit dunklem Kern. Ganz tiefgründig und würzig im Geruch, besitzt der Seña viel Cassis, Holunder, sowie kräuterige und florale Noten, sehr reizvoll, anziehend und vielschichtig, mit einer cremigen Fülle, die an Blaubeerkuchen erinnert. Sehr drahtig, tief, druckvoll und konzentriert beginnt der Seña im Mund, mit enormem Durchzug und viel Energie. So schafft er ein beeindruckendes Mittelstück, um das sich die gesamte Struktur in vielschichtigen Aspekten rankt. Die fein geschliffenen Gerbstoffe und weit gefächert aufblitzenden Fruchtaromen sind unglaublich frisch und nachhaltig lang arrangiert. Immer drückt und drückt dieser aufregend zupackende Wein und lässt kaum los."

  Decanter
  "The twenty-fifth vintage of a wine first made in 1995 by the Mondavi and Chadwick families is one of Francisco Baettig’s best editions yet: 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Malbec, 15% Carmenere and Petit Verdot aged for 22 months in French oak (10% in foudres). The nose offers redcurrant, blackberry, and cherry over a bed of sweet spices, cedar and peppers. Dense core and firm grip, it needs to be decanted or left in the bottle for a while longer."

  Wine Spectator
  "Boasts vibrant red cherry and berry flavors, which are well-knit and bear a minerally richness. The juicy finish features accents of dried green herbs and is supported by engaging tannins. Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Carmenère and 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."
