When two figures of the world wine industry join forces - Eduardo Chadwick and Robert Mondavi - the project they envision is bound to be out of the ordinary. In 1995, they created Viña Seña, Chile's most spectacular wine. The terroir of Aconcagua, bearing the famous Argentinean peak on the Chilean border, the highest point of the Andes (6962 meters), was chosen as the starting point for this adventure. 

Biodynamic, luxurious winemaking, plot selection: this wine embodies the unique terroir of the Aconcagua Valley. Praised by the greatest critics, endorsed by Robert Parker, this extraordinary wine has even been ranked among the 50 best wines in the world.
