Lobenberg: Das ist die Essenz Chiles. Die absolute Überfliegerblend und ein ehrwürdiges Denkmal für das Potenzial dieser Weinbaunation. Dieses Joint Venture zwischen Eduardo Chadwick und Mondavi soll mit den feinsten Rotweinen dieser Welt konkurrieren. Kann er auch und dies problemlos. Der Sena erinnert in der Nase an einen feinen Bordeaux vom linken Ufer. Ein Hauch grüner Paprika, Brombeere, etwas Tabak. Am Gaumen dann mächtig, dabei finessereich, unglaublich vielschichtig. Das Tannin legt sich fein auf die Zuge, dann kommen immer wieder reife Früchte, Unterholz, auch etwas Fichtennadeln. Bleibt enorm lang am Gaumen. Stellen Sie diesen Wein als Pirat unter den feinsten Rotweinblends. Der Sena hat das Zeug, sehr weit vorne zu landen. 98-100/100

Suckling über: Sena

-- Suckling: Complex, with savory, spicy character, showing tobacco, salted plums, olives, black cherries, cassis and a hint of white pepper on the nose, followed by a refined, savory, balsamic accent. A full-bodied Seña with juicy fruit chiseling into the tight, extremely fine-grained tannins. Long, bright and still elegant from this warm vintage. 53% cabernet sauvignon, 25% malbec, 15% carmenere and 7% petit verdot. A wine with lots of harmony now, but better to drink from 2025. 98/100

Parker über: Sena

-- Parker: The 2020 Seña is a blend of 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Malbec, 15% Carmenere and 7% Petit Verdot (a little higher in search of acidity) from grapes harvested early, the second week of March, and fermented mostly in stainless steel and 10% in concrete eggs. It has a moderate 13.5% alcohol and good freshness. It's subtle and layered, not only fruit but with more spice; it has polished tannins and very integrated oak after 22 months in barrique, 78% new, and with 10% of the volume in large Stockinger barrels. The warmer years seem to be nicely managed, so that it's not reflected in the ripeness but is more a matter of texture and quality of the tannins; in the warmer years, like 2017 or this 2019, the wines have a little more grip, but these are definitely finer than those from the 2017 vintage. This wine has intensity and complexity, with no mintiness or herbal notes; it's spicy and juicy, with energy and depth. It has structure, color, stuffing and acidity to develop nicely in bottle. 100,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in February 2022. 97/100

Tim Atkin über: Sena

-- Tim Atkin: Continuing the shift in style and weight that’s been apparent in Seña since 2014 – not easyto maintain in an extreme vintage like 2020 – the latest release is impressively bright and low in alcohol at just 13.5%. The assemblage here marries Cabernet Sauvignon with 25% Malbec, 15% Carmenère and 7% Petit Verdot, aged in 78% new wood and some larger foudres for texture. Floral and refreshing, with stylish rose petal and cinnamon top notes, layers of plum, bramble and redcurrant fruit, a balsamic undertone, stylish oak and the structure and acid backbone to age convincingly in bottle. 2025-35 97/100
