Sena Aconcagua Valley, Chile

Vintage: 1996
Description: Assemblage. 91% Cabernet Sauvignon. 9% Carmenere. Alcohol 12.5%. Ageing. 15 monts in French oak. barrels (100% new). Vintage 1996. Moderately cool season. Elegant wines with good balance and complexity. A cooler-than-normal season allowed the fruit to reach optimum ripeness while retaining good acidity, resulting in. elegant wines with great depth. In early summer, warm weather ensured good fruit set, and meticulous work in the. vineyard and adjusting crop loads during veraison resulted in exceptional uniformity in ripening. The season's cooler. temperatures extended the ripening period and encouraged excellent aroma and flavour development in both grapes,. Cabernet Sauvignon and Carmenere.
