Descripción del Producto
Seña is an authentic Chilean wine, an montaje made by the Seña oenologist Francisco Baettig from the finest grapes of Cabernet Sauvignon, Carménère, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot varieties from the estate vineyards at Panquehue in the Aconcagua Valley. The Carménère variety adds an evident Chilean personality to the wine.
To maximize quality, the fruit is handpicked exclusively in the morning and brought to the winery in 12 kg boxes. The grapes are then carefully selected on sorting tables and all extraneous plant material, leaves, and stems are removed to ensure fine fruit character in the final blend. The grapes are mostly fermented in stainless steel tanks at temperatures ranging from 24° to 30°C (75°–86°F), depending on the variety and seasonal conditions (microbiological load, and alcohol potential), to achieve the desired level of extraction. A 6% of the must is fermented in first-use French oak barrels to increase the complexity of the blend. Total maceration time range from 20 a 33 days for Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Carménère and 6 a 8 days for Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, depending on the development of each individual lot. The new wine then racked to 100% French new oak barrels from a selection of the finest cooperages is aged for 22 meses, during which time most of the malolactic fermentation takes place.
"2013 vintage will be remembered as an exceptional vintage, characterized by cool climate conditions that contributed to the fresh flavours and fruit intensity of each vineyard lot. The elegance and purity of Seña 2013 vintage truly stands out; a perfect blend of structure, persistence and roundness alongside freshness and intensity"
