WINEMAKER’S COMMENTS

The 1999 Seña has spicy blackberry and earthy aromas. The oak adds elements of toasted almonds, vanilla and coffee. With bottle bouquet classic cassis and mint aromas are developing. The flavors in the mouth remind me of ripe black olives and blackberry pie. Other flavors in the mouth are black cherry, coffee, vanilla and leather. The wine enters the mouth with spicy tannins and finishes with a long chewy sweet finish. This wine is a reflection of the 1999 harvest, which has toasted almond characters along with tobacco and earthy notes. I believe that Seña 1999 will continue improve in the bottle for the next 10 years.

Cellaring Potential:
Optimum year 2011. Decanting is suggested. 90pts Wine Spectator


Seña 1999: This particular vintage is 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot and 8% Carmenere. It has dense, pure, blackcurrant fruit, and ripe, slightly roasted nut aromas. Elegant, balanced, dark black fruits on the palate, with grip and extract. Ripe, rounded, with lovely substance. Very good indeed. 17+/20
