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 One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。

Superb aromas of black currants, rose petal and mint. Lavender and stones too. Full body with incredible fruit density. Complex, yet it's agile and bright. Tannins are perfectly polished. It builds on the palate and shows the structure of a first growth Bordeaux but remains so Chilean. A blend of 58% cabernet sauvignon, 15% carmenere, 12% malbec, 10% merlot, and 5% petit verdot. From biodynamically grown grapes. This is a joy to taste now but it will show itself in 2019. Even better than the amazing 2012.

The 2013 Seña might very well be their finest vintage to date. 2013 was a cool vintage that favored fresh flavors and elegant and pure wines full of nuances. At Viña Seña, they took advantage of the natural conditions and produced a stunning blend of 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Carménère, 12% Malbec, 10% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot, sourced from their 42 hectares of vineyards planted some 16 years ago in the Aconcagua Valley. The varietal mix has been fine tuned and the oak has also been gradually reduced during the last few years. The process was pretty straightforward, fermentation in stainless steel and aging in French oak barrels (75% of them new) for 22 months. It has a subtle nose with aromas of red and black fruit denoting very good freshness, and the classical tobacco and cracked peppercorns, with the oak nicely integrated adding some spices and faint smoky aromas. The red fruit is remarkable and really adds freshness. Linear, juicy, sharp and long, very tasty and with very fine, slightly grainy tannins. There is superb balance, classical proportion and symmetry. I have not tasted all of the vintages of Seña (one day...), but out of all the years I've tried, this is certainly the best. I'm sure this will bloom in bottle and will have a long development. 60,000 bottles were filled.

The 2013 Seña is the product of an ideal year in terms of temperature and yields. A blend of 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Carménère, 12% Malbec, 10% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot aged for 22 months in three-quarters new French barrels. Garnet red in hue. A subtle nose of blackcurrant, herbs and clear hints of plum are all enhanced and clarified by a layer of mint. A well-defined wine in the mouth with fruity flavors and refined tannins that - channel the flow with a little grip, the freshness keeps things lively at the end.
