Seña 2020

Founded in 1995, this Domaine embodies the alliance between Californian experience and the exceptional terroir of Chile's Aconcagua region.

The story begins with Eduardo Chadwick, a member of the family that owns Viña Errázuriz, a historic Domaine winery in Chile. In his quest for excellence, Chadwick set out to transcend the traditional boundaries of Chilean wine by collaborating with the legendary Robert Mondavi, a wine pioneer from California. Their shared vision was to create a wine that would reflect the grandeur of Chilean terroir while incorporating Mondavi's expertise.

The Domaine vineyard covers around 42 hectares in the Aconcagua Valley, benefiting from an exceptional terroir composed of diverse soils and ideal climatic conditions. Grape varieties grown include Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Carmenère and Cabernet Franc. The emphasis on sustainability and respect for the environment reinforces the commitment to the preservation of the terroir.

The philosophy is based on the idea that the quality of a wine is intrinsically linked to the health of the vineyards. As such, environmentally-friendly farming practices are implemented to encourage a positive interaction between vines, soil and climate. Hand-picking of the grapes ensures meticulous selection of the best berries, guaranteeing optimal quality.

Limited production allows careful attention to every detail of the winemaking process. Grapes are vinified in a state-of-the-art winery where technological innovation is combined with traditional methods. Barrel aging, mainly in French oak, gives the wines added complexity and elegance.

The wines are recognized for their distinctive character and their ability to faithfully express Chilean terroir. Seña, the flagship product of Domaine, has quickly gained worldwide renown for its concentration, depth and ability to age gracefully. Each vintage is a captivating exploration of the subtle nuances of terroir, offering a taste experience that evolves over time.
