Vega Sicilia Pintia Magnum 2018

HED23495 150cl 15%
Vega Sicilia Pintia is a red wine hailing from the Toro wine region and crafted by Bodegas y Viñedos Pintia, a winery affiliated with the Vega Sicilia group. Pintia is celebrated for its robust and commanding wines, primarily fashioned from the Tinta de Toro grape variety, a local clone of Tempranillo. The 2018 Pintia vintage emerged from a cooler and wetter growing season, yet impressively retains a 15% ABV. This year`s élevage was briefer, with a maturation period of 10 months in French and American oak barrels. The nose is dominated by vibrant cherry fruit, embodying a fresher and more refined character compared to the regional norm. Upon tasting, the palate experiences a medium-bodied texture and unravels with the presence of fine and elegant tannins, adding further charm to this remarkable release.

Vega Sicilia

Vega Sicilia

Located in Ribera del Duero, Vega Sicilia was founded in 1864 by Don Eloy Lecanda y Chaves, who established the vineyards with cuttings of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Malbec taken from the vineyards of Bordeaux. The estate planted Tempranillo alongside these Bordelais varietals, which now makes up the majority of the modern Vega Sicilia blend.

The flagship wines are Unico and Unico Reserva Especial - the former is aged for 10 years before release while the latter is a blend of only the finest vintages. Valbuena 5 is the estate's 'entry level' wine, a five year aged Tempranillo. Alongside Vega Sicilia, the same team also manage Bodegas Alion in Ribera del Duero and Bodegas Pintia in Toro.
