Viñedo Chadwick 2020

The Viñedo Chadwick vineyard in the Maipo Valley was originally Don Alfonso Chadwick’s personal polo field, to whom the resulting wine is dedicated as a tribute. Viñedo Chadwick is made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon and is the flagship cuvée of Viña Seña. The hot, dry 2020 vintage posed a challenge for vineyard work. Dark core of color, pale rim. On the bouquet, the 2020 Viñedo Chadwick shows highly nuanced Cabernet fruit—layered, delicate, cool, and refined. Dense, spicy, and finely structured, it also shows on the palate, with a racy attack, plenty of structure, and slightly austere tannins. Everything is geared toward breed and fresh presence; thus, in terms of body and fullness, Viñedo Chadwick seems rather slightly delicate. Could gain further with time. 13% abv.
