📖 Sena喺1995年由美國葡萄酒之父Robert Mondavi聯同重量級智利酒莊Vina Errazuriz莊主Eduardo Chadwick合作創立，Robert Mondavi相信酒友都知佢亦同波爾多一級莊Mouton聯手創立咗美國神級酒莊Opus One1️⃣而Vina Errazuriz就係智利老牌重量級酒莊，長年生產高分酒款將智利酒推出世界✨

咁嘅強大組合，再以波爾多經典基底加上智利靈魂葡萄Carmenere, 果然造出另一神級之作🔝除咗各大酒評多年高分肯定之外，最出名嘅係喺2004年著名嘅柏林盲品會中，以2001年Sena擊敗第三名嘅Lafite🤯以2000年Sena同2001年嘅Margaux並列第四🤯要知道16款參賽酒當中包括波爾多五大同意大利嘅Sassicaia、Solaia等頂級名莊，自此令Sena甚至智利酒走上神枱📈

Sena葡萄園地處智利阿空加瓜穀西側，距離太平洋40公里。葡萄園面積達42公頃，種植的品種有 Carmenere、 Cabernet Sauvignon、 Merlot、 Cabernet Franc、 Syrah等。呢到氣候屬地中海氣候，旱季較長。由於靠近太平洋，涼爽嘅海風能有效平衡氣溫，涼爽但都足以讓葡萄達到完美嘅成熟度。土壤方面，山谷斜坡嘅崩積土壤中含有礫石、黏土同大小不等嘅石塊，形成良好排水性。 

酒莊為了最大限度提高品質，會喺低溫嘅清晨就手摘精選葡萄，經過精心篩選後大部份喺不銹鋼桶發酵，跟據唔同品種調教唔同溫度，以達到理想嘅提取程度。另外有6％葡萄喺全新法國橡木桶發酵，喺發酵過程中，需每日進行3次淋皮，充分萃取顏色、單寧同風味。浸泡時間都根據品種同每一地塊而定。最後喺88%法國桶陳22個月，73%為新桶，其餘12%大桶陳熟。

近年釀酒師Francisco Baettig對酒精、酒體、酸度更精準嘅掌控令本身較粗獷嘅智利酒Sena變得更優雅融和，令本來高分變得更加高分📈呢幾年James Suckling喺2015同2018年都畀咗100分滿分，而Wine Advocate都畀咗之前無上過嘅97分高分🔥另外2016都係智利好年，Wine Advoate產區評分係畀過15年中第2高嘅93分，相比起JS 100分嘅2015年絕對係抵飲之選😉🙌🏻

 Aromas are lifted and bright in this wine with loads of blackberries and blueberries. Full body, velvety tannins. Gorgeous texture. Very pure fruit. A bright and more fundamental Seña than last vintages. Restrained at the end. 55% cabernet, 20% malbec, 12% petit verdot, 8% carmenere, 5% cabernet franc. September 2018 release. Needs three or four years of bottle age.

The truly excellent 2016 Seña could very well be the finest wine produced at this estate that started as a joint venture between Robert Mondavi and Eduardo Chadwick and now continues under the guidance of Chadwick and the excellent hand of winemaker Francisco "Pancho" Baettig. The grapes were picked later in 2016, and the final blend is 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Malbec, 12% Petit Verdot, 8% Carmenere and 5% Cabernet Franc, with more Malbec and considerably less Carmenere than in the past. This is "only" 13.5% alcohol and has remarkable acidity and freshness, as well as overall balance and elegance that surpasses all previous vintages. Twelve percent of the volume matured in oak foudres, while the rest was aged in barrique (73% new) for 22 months. Even so, the wine is not oaky and comes through as harmonious and elegant within the house style. It's serious, dry and elegant, with zero concessions to sweetness. A mineral and profound red blend. 72,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in February 2018.

Elegant, rich and finely textured, with concentrated and pure-tasting flavors of dried cherry, raspberry and red currant, framed by medium-grained tannins. The polished finish features sandalwood and dried savory spice notes. Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Petit Verdot, Carmenère and Cabernet Franc.

Seña 2016 is a blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Malbec, 12% Petit Verdot, 8% Carménère and 5% Cabernet Franc, all from Aconcagua, that spent 22 months in French oak, 73% of it new. A ripe, complex nose of cassis and raspberry jam with sweet spices from the ageing. Fresh and juicy on the palate with a taut texture of firm, precise tannins and a bold, lengthy finish. Will age well in the bottle.
