ROCAS DE SEÑA 2022

Tasting Notes

This is the third version of this Rocas de Seña, a sort of second wine from Seña, but with a "soul of its own," as defined by winemaker Emily Faulconer. To start with, it has a higher percentage of Mediterranean varieties, such as 25% syrah, 7% monastrell, and 5% garnacha, which complement the 33% malbec, 21% cabernet sauvignon. The rest is petit verdot. In addition, a third of the blend comes from vines in Las Vertientes, a vineyard about seven kilometers west of the Seña vineyard, also in the Aconcagua Valley. A spicy character is what marks this wine, as well as herbal notes amidst a layer of juicy, ripe red and black fruits. It is a big, intense, dense wine. (Patricio Tapia,guiadescorchados.cl,2025)
