Seña 2021 (Aconcagua Valley; 50% Cabernet Sauvignon; 27% Malbec; 17% Carmenere; 6% Petit Verdot; aged in oak barrels, 70% of which are new, and foudres; 14% alcohol). Tasted twice, the second time with Francisco Baettig over Zoom. Cooler as a vintage, so with a little more Malbec and a little less Carménère. Fresh and complex and aromatically highly expressive. Less overtly spicy than Rocas. Cloves. Nutmeg. Cumin. Crushed rose petals and violets. But all restrained and in moderation. Grenadine. Pomegranite and red berry fruit. Great complexity and impressive layering. This it taut and tight and with excellent concentration, fine-grained tannins holding it close to the spine and lovely density and compactness.
