Vega Sicilia Macan Rioja 2018 75cl

Vega Sicilia Macan Rioja 2018

Macan is a single-variety tempranillo red wine from the Benjamin de Rothschild and Vega Sicilia winery in Rioja, two great names in international winemaking.

This is from vineyards over 30 years old. After alcoholic fermentation, the resulting wine undergoes malolactic fermentation: 70% in stainless steel tanks and the other 30% in barrels. It then ages for 15 months in French wood barrels.

• Vega Sicilia Macan Rioja 2018 is a silky and elegant red wine with great aging potential
• Its expressiveness is subdued, but this becomes more developed and refined over the years
• The nose reveals ripe red and black fruit with nuances of leather and spices
• On the palate it is flavoursome, fresh and elegant. The fruit strengthens and is complemented by chocolate notes and velvety, elegant tannins
