The 2019 vintage featured a warm spring followed by a cooler-than-average summer.

After a mild winter with low rainfall, warm temperatures encouraged an early and healthy bud break, with excellent flowering and fruit set.

Despite being classified as a warm vintage in Chile, the Seña vineyard experienced cooler summer conditions, with a total heat summation of 1,478 degree days—similar to 2018.

Cooling coastal winds moderated temperatures during January, March, and April, allowing for a longer ripening period.

This extended hang time enabled gradual sugar accumulation, balanced tannin development, and preservation of fruit intensity and acidity.

Harvest began March 15, producing a smaller crop with concentrated aromas and flavors.

The resulting wines show seamless texture, refined structure, elegance, and freshness, with strong aging potential.

Seña was established in 1995 as a joint venture between Eduardo Chadwick and Robert Mondavi.

The goal was to create a Chilean wine that could stand among the world's First Growths.

The wine is Bordeaux-inspired but expresses a Chilean identity through Carménère and biodynamic vineyard practices.

The 2019 vintage marks the 25th Anniversary of Seña.
