100 Points & Definitely the Coolest Wine You’ve Never Tried
2021 Viña Seña. 100 points. And honestly? They could’ve given it 110 and we wouldn’t argue. This wine is so outrageously good, it feels like it’s cheating.
It’s got perfectly ripe fruit, electric freshness, and tannins so polished they belong on the cover of a magazine. We mean it when we say that this wine is a masterclass in balance, a Bordeaux-style blend that somehow hits every note with precision and soul.
Blame it on Chile’s Aconcagua Valley, where the Andes and Pacific team up to create a viticultural paradise. The 2021 vintage had everything: cool, steady ripening, just enough warmth to build depth, and a long, slow growing season that let every grape hit peak perfection.
This is a can’t-miss bottle. A drop-everything-and-buy a case bottle. A “wait, how do I get more of this?” bottle. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.
2021 Vina Seña Red Blend, Aconcagua Valley
JS100 An extremely pure and elegant vintage for Seña. This is really fresh, nimble and floral on the nose with subtle cherries, plums, redcurrants and wild lavender. More red fruit here with lots of layers and just a touch of sweet spice. Very discreet and subtle, with the elegance, freshness and poise you’d expect from 2021. Medium- to full-bodied on the palate with a bit more flesh and depth if you compare it with Roca de Seña, their second wine. The impeccable tannins show the supreme quality of the fruit this year. Persistent, seamless finish, but comes in a subtle way. 50% cabernet sauvignon, 27% malbec, 17% carmenere and 6% petit verdot. Effortlessly drinkable now, but it will age beautifully.
